Man I struggled with this site!! Anybody else??? It's good to struggle though cuz you stamp outside your little norm......this swirly stamp is the other great stamp in that same set, Elements of Style that will be available in May....so pretty and completely different from the rose stamp I was using last weekend that looks a little like toile blossoms.... The word stamp here is from Vintage Vogue that is in the current mini catalog....Anyway- this is just simple embossing - Here was my inspiration:

It was a bit of a struggle for me also. I think it was because there was little definate pattern to draw from. So much solid color but no a lot of pattern where we usually draw our inspiration. I finally settled for the colors in a glove to inspire me. ...but as to your card, wow is it gorgeous. I love all that bold, vibrant color and the pattern. stamped om black is just outstanding. This one goes straight to my favs...
