I love using red with black because of the wonderful contrast. So when I stamped this image I thought of leaving most of it black. I thought I'd color some of the parts red. Then I thought it looked too plain with the card base background, so I cut 1/2" strips of red and black paper and did a herringbone pattern. You can find the tutorial here.

I wanted to add some texture to the background so I dry embossed it with the old world paper 3D embossing folder. The image was added with dimensionals. I stamped this specific sentiment so it could go on a dinner tray for a guy at a local hospital. |
