Celebration!

Today's card, I decided to do something different.  Although I love to colour, it's always nice to change it up. I know a lot of you have seen some beautiful cards done using spellbinder dies, so I decided to give it a try.
With doing this I wanted to incorporate a Stamping Bella sentiment called
Celebrate.






I started out by stamping the sentiment on bella's bestest paper.  Then using Labels #14 s/binder die I cut out the sentiment and used the next size up and cut another piece out.  I also cut out 2 decorative squares from the Fleur de Lis set. The white paper behind the center piece is a piece of embossed paper I picked up from The Paper Pickle.  It is so pretty.  Finished this up with lots of pearls, lime rhinestones, some lime silk ribbon and a rosette.
I would of like to of use the "Love" sentiment but it was too wide and wouldn't fit inside this die.
I have a request for 70th Anniversary card to do, so think I'm going to do something similar.

Thanks for stopping by, I'll see you again on friday with my challenge card.
If you get a chance to play along, the theme is use a stamp that hasn't been inked! Pretty simple!
