I made this card for the Rubbernecker Blogger Challenge which is to make a birthday card. Today is Sherry's birthday so I am killing two birds with one stone. You can see more information on how I created my card by going to my blog. http://kittiekraft.typepad.com/kitti...ar-sherry.html

* fill a sandwich baggy with 3/4 cup of dried rice and seal the top. To use as a background hold the bag loosely in your hand, pat directly on the ink pad and then onto your cardstock. It leaves a non descript background. You can do the same thing with dried beans, peas, or anything else you can think of.

Love the rich colors, and that litle bit of bling with the ep.

Wow times a hundred on this one Kittie! It is gorgeous!!! Several new ideas I learned from this one, like the rice bag technique, very cool. Then there is the highlighting with re-inkers and gold eb thing you did, also very cool! I am going to have to try these ideas! This card you made shows you can create just about anything you put your mind to! Plus, you do it so fabulously too! Love the card! TFS :0)

Beautifully done, and I soooo can't wait to try the Kittie Baggie technique! I love my background stamps, and now the idea that I can make my own cheaper ones!
