Scallop Circle cut from the Gold Foil paper and Very Vanilla circle both cut using the Layering Circles (151770) These too are well used in my stamp room! Calypso Coral ink used for the verse. I love this verse too. Gilded gems and done. I did use the back of the card base inside the card cutting it to 5 1/4″ x 4″ can adding a layer of Very Vanilla over it cut 3 1/4″ x 5″. The look completes the inside too and you can easily write your greeting on the Very Vanilla. Simple and fast card!
