Elegant Grapes

This card was for a demonstrator-only swap. So, the pressure was on for me to create something wonderful. I love this card! The card base is 4.25x5.5 and is Elegant Eggplant. I used the Watercolor Vine Jumbo Wheel along the top with VersaMark, and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. While I was embossing anyway, I decided to add Happy Birthday (from It's Your Birthday set) in VersaMark, and clear emboss that too! I then stamped this elegant grape (from Fruit Stand) in Elegant Eggplant on Very Vanilla cardstock. Used Ticket Corner punch on the corners, and sponged with EE again. Layered So Saffron over Old Olive and taped ribbon to the back of that. Ran the ribbon (Elegant Eggplant 1/4" Grosgrain) to the other side of card and looped through some Antiqu Brass Hodgepodge Hardware. Taped again under bottom of layers, and glued to card. Put Dimensionals under the grape and lined up over the layers. Give it a try! Easy card, but it's very elegant, and people will think it took you forever (which of course it did, but only because you couldn't stop playing with your stamping stuff!).
