I love this card...it's so textured with the embossing, but the message really stands out. My one problem with using this stamp big like this is that it's sort of busy when stamped in a color. You have to get bold with the embellishments and words to balance the busyness out. By using the clear EP and VersaMark ink, that design difficulty is eliminated!
Have a happy Sunday, everyone!
