What A Year!

For this card, I put together quite a few pieces of card stock that were altered with the die cutting machine. The background layer of Polished Pink was embossed with the Quatrefoil Tile embossing folder, I really like this background and thought it would tie together with the Graceful Ties stamp set that is sued throughout

 the card as well.

The Coastal Cabana layer is cut using the Dots and Spots die and the sentiment layer was created with the Stylish Shapes dies. 

I think my favorite image in the Graceful Ties stamp set is the one I used on the Gorgeous Grape layer which is a set of 3 different tiles (I stamped more than once on this piece).

Supplies:

Graceful Tiles

Highland Heather, Memento Black, Gorgeous Grape ink

Polished Pink, Coastal Cabana, Gorgeous Grape, Basic White card stock

Quatrefoil Tile folder

Dots and Spots Die

Stylish Shapes dies
