Designer Rosette Card

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARITA!!!!

Today is a special day because it's my friend Marita's birthday! I was pretty stressed out trying to figure out what kind of card to make for her. Because how do you make a card for someone who is super creative and talented? I was trying to figure that one out for quite some time and I finally came up with this card. I hope that she likes it!

I was inspired by a card that I made in one of Niki's classes. Click here to see her card. I really like how the Scallop Square Bigz Clear Die is used to cut out the shape of the card. To add a little something different, I wanted to add a rosette. This is the first time I used the Designer Rosette Bigz XL die and who better to try it out for? A fellow fan of the big shot of course :) Here are some close up shots.

I had fun making Marita's birthday card. I did a little sponging, got to play with the big shot, used some hemp twine and got to use a brad. Embellishments are fun aren't they? And I also got to use one of my favorite designer series papers - the retired Sale-a-bration 2012 exclusive Everyday Enchantment.
