Stunning and shiny card using the Wild Roses background stamp from Stampin’ Up!

I received my new preorder and I wanted to play with the lovely Wild Roses background stamp. I thought I could use the new gilded foils but it didn't work the way I envisioned. I will try again with a different card design to use the foiling.

  • Wild Roses Cling Stamp [154363]
  • Tasteful Touches Bundle 
  • Whisper White 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock - Scrap for the sentiment and inside layer 5 1/4 x 4" if you would like to add it.
