I kept pretty much the same look and layout but used different stamps and accessories.
I recreated the look of the background stamp with multiple foliage stamps in various colors of ink. After getting that look how I wanted it, I added polka dots with a red Copic marker.
I completed the card by die cutting the word joy from Real Red cs. I added that to white cs that I punched out but didn't like the punched look so cut it to a rectangle. I die cut a gold banner and added the sentiment to it. Gold ribbon and gold thread to complete the front panel. This panel is matted with gold and added to a Real Red card base. Final touch was to add red gems randomly on the front panel.
Congratulations and enjoy your week! Thanks for looking!

Wonderful case Catherine. Love that you created this lovely background. Now I want to case yours! Everything looks perfect. The joy, the gold banner, the ribbon and twine! So beautifully done!
Wow! It's so cool that you were able to make your own background! The Joy sentiment tag and ribbon are beautiful together. A fabulous card to celebrate Sue!
