Two of my best friends had January birthdays, and I created very similar cards for them.
The beautiful stamp is Altenew's "Arabesque Medallion" stamp. Actually this is just half the stamp! I embossed it in gold, and then used Zig watercolor markers to color each one, choosing a redder color for the one on the left, and pink for the other.
The sentiment, Papertrey's "Banner Sentiments" was also embossed with gold. One card was adhered to a dark green textured paper in my stash (probably Bazzil) and the other to a Pink Hibiscus card. For once, I didn't think either card needed any further embellishment.
I've had this stamp for several months, and was glad to finally put it to use. I have more ideas for it, so you're sure to see it pop up again in a different form.
