I love all the texture on this card. And I'm always hooked when I can coordinate stamps with paper as seen here with the Fresh Vintage Stamp Set and the Everyday Enchantment designer series paper.
To get the look of the background, ink up the embossing folder before adding your paper. Simply rub your ink pad all over the "FLAT" side of the folder.
I used Island Indigo Classic Ink and Island Indigo card stock with the Finial Press Embossing folder.
The little ribbon and brad embellishment are also from the Sale A Bration catalog. You can choose Everyday Enchantment Ribbon and Brad Pack as your free item when you spend $50.
Here's another card I made for a wonderful friend and downline member who has been struggling with some health issues. She was feeling well enough the other day for me to come over and "play".
We made thank you cards using this same design and the Perfectly Penned Stamp Set from the Idea Book and Catalog.
