One of my SCS Pals is havin' a birthday in a few days - I don't think she'll ever quite catch up to me tho'. Since I know this will never arrive in time for her birthday I figured I'd put it in my gallery so she knows I didn't forget about her...
I had every intention of loading this card up with pearls for Pamzi - but I couldn't figure out where to put them once I got it all together. But I spritzed it with shimmer paint so it glitters to beat all. It is so overcast and wet here today the camera just couldn't capture all that sparkle.
I used this week's Mojo sketch and dry embossed with 4 different texture folders on the various panels, then sponged everything with Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake and Early Espresso ink. Sponged Brilliance Moonlight White on the Espresso panel for a bit of extra sheen. Used a new Verve stamp and a couple from a previous release too. And Pamzi, iffen you can't see it, get our Defective Detective Debzi to run it through her scanner, because behind those layers it has been stamped with French Script (just because I know you like to think you can speak "en français").
The ribbon was retreived from a gift I received and it is the perfect match for Cherry Cobbler. I think this is my new fave colour combo. Crumb Cake with Cherries and Vanilla and a bit of Espresso - sounds like a birthday party to me!
Have a good one my Original Punch Pal! Sorry, no cowboys for ya on this one! RYPH my friend!
PT: 3 die-cuts, 2 punches.
(BTW - for some reason my photo makes the top punched panel on the inside of the card look all wonky and curved - it really and truly isn't like that!)

Pamzi will love this! Great job on the embossing and extras. That blessings sentiment is wonderful - I love the flourishes around it too. My camera twists my cards too! TFS.

What a beauty, Izzy!! Those colors are so rich-looking. Too bad you couldn't figure out where to put Pamzi's pearls, but I'll bet that shimmer mist more than makes up for it. I know this will make her day, no matter when it arrives

Pam will adore your card and for sure with that shimmer paint. I thought she had bought all the pearls available in the stores so I'm really surprised you had any to even try to put on your card. LOL Very pretty card for the Pamz. She is sure to love it.
