Then I stamped the sentiment from the Designer Tin of Cards stamp set on a piece of Vellum card stock. I first inked the stamp in VersaMark, then tapped it on my Memento Tuxedo Black pad to get a sticky, black impression that would hold the Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder.
I wrapped the Vellum around the swirly panel, adhering it to the back. Then I mounted it on a panel of Basic Black card stock and tied a length of Whisper White ⅝” Organza Ribbon around it. Then I adhered it to a Flirty Flamingo card base. Finally, I added some long-retired black rhinestones. One could use regular rhinestones colored with a black permanent marker instead.
Here’s the card I CASE’d:
