In addition to sending Kathleen Lammie's mother a card with happy thoughts and blessings, I am also sending her this birthday card. She will 81 on 9.26. Unfortunately, it may be a day or two late but the wishes are sincere. I hope she will have a lovely day with friends and family.
Stamps: SU, Paper Smooches
Paper: Paper Studios base, Walmart black c.s.
Ink: PTI, Stazon
Accessories: SU sponge, MFT die
I double stamped the greeting to get a shadow effect. I like to use this technique and I'm always glad when I use it directly on my finished card, and it turns out.
Thank you for looking!

You're really inspiring me to get out Baroque Motifs, Gabby!! And the double stamping - I'm chicken, I'll only do it with a stampamajig to make sure it works out, LOL.

Your flower placement on your card is perfect!
WOW-you rock-to double stamp on a FINISHED card!
Not sure I would have the courage to try that?
I LOVE how the black accents make your card POP!
