For my card, I began with a white card base and added a layer of black cardstock to create a bold frame. On top of that, I placed a fun piece of wallpaper that brings wonderful texture to the design. The pattern and tactile feel of the wallpaper add an unexpected element that makes the background feel rich and unique.
For the focal point, I die cut this striking quill pen from The Greetery using a black designer paper and added silver accents to highlight the details. The quill is popped up on dimensionals to give it lift and presence on the textured background. To complete the design, I heat embossed the Thanks sentiment in silver on black cardstock, creating a crisp, elegant finish that ties in beautifully with the metallic accents on the quill.
