I'm a lover of clean and simple cards. This one definately took more than my normal cards. LOL! First I embossed a white piece of paper. Then I took my copic markers in yellow and orange and colored in the damask shapes. Then outlined the triangles with a chocolate colored marker. I added some versamark, glassy glaze, and heated. I repeated that 4 times! Then I allowed to cool and then cracked it to make it look like cracked glass.
I stamped my "birthday" sentiment on vellum and attached it. I added lots of distressing to the card to give it an aged look to it.
