Happy Birthday Cameo

Hi all and thanks for stopping by today!  It's day 4 (of 7) of MFT Teaser Time!  I am stepping outside of "comfort zone" to use the soon-to-be-released Vintage Cameo Frame Die-namics and Stamp Set.  This elegant set makes gorgeous cards in no time at all.  I love the bold silhouettes and elegant font.  There are several coordinating elements for the frame that complete the look, right down to the "crackle" stamp to add to the vintage feel. 



I purchased this Pink Paislee Patterned Paper pack specifically because it had cameos on it... but then I didn't use any of the cameo prints.  LOL  Figures!  It is actually a Halloween pack, but I just LOVE the bold green and black color combo.


The silhouette is stamped in Brilliance Black and the crackle stamp was stamped in Certainly Celery Stampin' Up Classic Ink.  I hand-placed the Swarovski crystals around the oval to add a little glitz.



The Happy Birthday sentiment was stamped in Brilliance Black on a piece from the First Place Award Ribbon Die-namics and then popped up on Black Sticky Dots.



Here is a look at the stamp set with Die-namics die.  It is a HUGE 6 X 8 stamp set with lots of possibilities.


Here are a couple ways you can combine the set and die to create different looks:



The Vintage Cameo Frame Die-namics die will also be available separately and it looks great with or without the stamp set.
