This is for Julie's Featured Stamper Challenge honoring Heidi AKA howdyheidi .
Heidi has an amazing gallery. I found many cards that interested me. I settled on this one because of the pillow top background technique and the simple rose.
Changes: similar but different colors, different rose stamp, changed the theme, sentiment on a separate piece, colored card base.
The background technique was new to me, so I went looking for help. I found excellent directions by Sabrina/Cook22 in a previous Try a Technique Challenge - TLC479. See it here:

Your background turned out beautifully! And thanks for the pm . I would have hated to leave broken links in the few affected challenges, and I'm really glad you were able to find and use the tutorial. The little diamonds sparkle beautifully on it.

This is beautiful!! I love the soft texture and the way you doubled the birthday tag and placement of the gems - a beautiful card indeed!!

This card took my breath away Diane. I have these stamps and almost put them in the donate pile (not any more though!). I love, love, love your background technique and the colors you used. I feel a CASE coming on my friend. ~Karen.
