Hi there blog friends! Hoping your Sunday is a glorious one. I’ve gone a little bit bold today . . . for a bold friend. Someone close to me is having a birthday, one of my girlfriends, who is just a hoot! So I changed up a little bit to go with some power colors for a birthday card for her. As it were, working with some of the new Spellbinders, this Damask keeps floating to the top – it was designed by my sweet friend Laura Campbell, and I just love it. I paired it up with a new sentiment from Our Daily Bread Designs called Birthday Blessings.
I took one of the damask die templates (Spellbinders™ S5-081 Damask Motifs), cut it four times and assembled it into a medallion. On top of that I popped up Spellbinders™ Picot Edged Circles and Spellbinders™ Standard Circles SM. On the edge I used some lace, Spellbinders™ E8-007 Classic Edges, Spellbinders™ Classic Bracket Edgeablities and Spellbinders™ E-010 Classic Decorative Inserts, topping it off with the border from Spellbinders™ S5-080 Damask Accents set.

I love bold! I am just enjoying the Spellbinders and the Sentiment is sooo awesome. I really love your card style, she will adore this one.
Beautiful idea of the bright colors. It is always amazing what designs that can be done with the spellbinders dies. And you give me so much inspiration. thanks so much, Becca. hugs and smiles.
Love it! I am normally a pastel girl but found this card to grab my attention. Yesterday I said that I wanted to learn hardanger. Today I bought a book on the different stitches. I AM going to learn! You inspire me.
Red, black and white is such a striking combination. Your card is gorgeous today Becca. I love the die-cuts they are very pretty. Beautifully accessorized too. Beautiful work. As always Becca. TFS!!! :-D
Becca, your card is just beautiful! Those colours are just so striking and I really love how you have used your dies! Stunning!
Just stunning!!!! You continue to amaze me with your gorgeous, detailed work! I can’t imagine how you come up with these ideas!
Let’s see….another craft. My daughter and I noodle around with candy making, which I consider to be crafty, especially making boxes and such. Would love to learn to temper chocolate and make very ornate chocolate candies.
Thank you for the inspiration and making us think about ourselves as well!

How do you ever figure out how to put all of the various dies together?
which ones to use and when?
Becca: elegant this is…I love the colors!
BEAUTIFUL! Becca you did it again! LOVE IT
While I love the pastels, pinks, etc. this card really grabs you and
the red and black together says “hey, look at me, I’m special’
Your friend will love it!
Simply gorgeous. I love the black and red – very bold, and striking.
Hi Becca,
I hope you are well and have had a good weekend.
Todays card is fabulous and would make a lovely front to a beautiful journal or birthday book.
Take care Linda
I love the dramatic color combo. Beautiful!
So beautiful, as usual. I don’t know how you come up with all your ideas. You are definitely a very talented lady–and you must have supplies to die for. I don’t know where you find all your neat little embellishments that add so much. I’m never lucky but would sure like to win that paper. Thanks for the chance.
This is Beautiful Becca, love the colors and the borders.
Love the boldness of the colors in today’s card.
Oh my oh my what a beauty here again Becca. I so love this card and I´m sure your friend will just love it too hun, soooooooo gorgeous work again.

LOL Eileen
Wowzers, that card is VERY dramatic and I’m sure will be well received by your friend.
I have thought many times how nice it would be to receive a “Becca” card. Those that do are very fortunate indeed. I know your friend will just love the bold colors and beautiful design. God bless…. Denice
Just… WOW!!!! Lovely card, and it’s so dramatic! Your friend will love it. I love it…anyone would love to receive it. TFS
How do you think to use four of the damask together? It is lovely! You do think out of the box. I would never think of using multiples to get one outstanding look. You are great!
I need to learn how to do your layering of your die cuts
Gorgeous card. Love red and black together. Thanks for sharing,
me encanta está divina !!!
WOW-WOW!! This is gorgeous! Wow is so inadequate, but a perfect adjective to describe this card escapes me.
This card is just gorgeous! Love the look of a card made with the black/red/white combinaton.
Beautiful card and a beautiful, meaningful verse. Thank you for all the inspiration you give.
Becca – how absolutely beautiful ! Could be a beautiful Valentine card, too! Love it !
What a beauty Becca!!!! My favorite colors and I just love these new motif and accent die sets. Still waiting for mine to arrive. Looking forward to videos and pics of CHA. Some day I would love to be connected with someone in the Trades so I could attend this. How fun to get a first hand look at all the wonderful new products. Hope you have a great time.

Oh Becca, What a gorgeous work of art! Red and black, umm two of my favorite colors. I too, can hardly wait for that damask die to come out for us to buy. Thanks for sharing your beautiful card and for the chance to win that delicious candy. Oh, this year, I hope to do a better job of organizing my paper craft supplies, Hugs and blessings! Patty W.
Gorgeous card but no video!
How do I know how to make this card. I can’t figure out which die is which or how many pieces…..
So striking! Love the colors and the die combo!
This is one of the most attractive cards you’ve ever created, Becca. The medallion is simply gorgeous. Every single element is well-laid out. I so love it that I can’t wait to make a card similar to it though I don’t have the dies you used. You certainly light up my day with your creations.
This a really beautiful card. The colors are so classy, and it does make a wonderful wedding card. Thanks for all your wonderful ideas.
