Just droppin'.....

Hi!
I'm back with a fun card using few of my favorite things...

First favorite STAMPENDOUS stamps...love them Changito and Fluffles are two cutest ones ever...I use  fluffles "handmade by"stamp to sign the cards I create..
Now Stampendous is hosting weekly sketch challenge..I missed first two ( as you all know I was sick) :(

This the 3rd sketch ..

Now the next favorite thing is Stampendous Embossing powders..I've used a few brands...but so far I like   Stampendous ones the best...Detail White is one I use the most.
Last but not the least I'm a fan of these round Stampendous Class A Peel stickers...looks like the rhinestones..adds perfect shine to a project .... its inexpensive and most important thing its very light in weight & flat so I don't have to pay extra postage to mail my cards..

I have used Changito birthday stamp set and Evergreen Borders set for this card.
I heat embossed the swirl pattern on the red Pink Paisley -365 paper with Stampendous Detail white embossing powder....also added some Class A Peel stickers to create a fun pattern.

I've finished the inside of the card with the same stamp set...


Thanks for stopping by...
