Birthday blessings

 I've had this paper pack sitting on my desk and have made several cards recently using it.  I have had it for a very, very long time and it is down to just scraps and pieces.  One of my very favorite things to do in card making is use up full patterned paper packs, so you will be seeing many cards using up the last little bit of this one, coming soon.  This card is a birthday card for my mom.  The piece of paper with the roses on it is gorgeous and it is has some gold foiling on it, so I heat embossed the sentiment and the top layer of both the rose and leaf layering images.

It's hard to see it in the photos, but in real life it is so sparkly and shiny!  Really beautiful.  The ribbon also has been sitting on my desk--it goes perfectly with this paper pack as it has a nice gold shine to it.
