Muse #198 + Seize the Birthday Anything Goes

I'm happy to see the Muse inspiration challenge back this week with a terrific card from Anita. I love so many things about this design and focussed on the inked clear embossed background along with the white embossed sentiment on black cardstock. 

The MFT Happy Birthday background stamp is clear embossed on a white panel before inking with Peacock Feathers and Picked Raspberry Distress Inks.




This sentiment banner is wrapped around one side of the panel and then the panel is popped up on the card base. An Elizabeth Crafts candle finishes the card off. I enjoyed the look of the inked background stamps so much that I have a few more panels waiting to be made into cards.

In addition to the Muse Challenge #198, this card is being linked to Seize the Birthday Anything Goes.
