'Happy Celebration' & Celebrations Embossing Folder

Ok- here is a fun card that I made last night for my upcoming Spring Fling!  I love the subtle colors of this card.  I think it turned out super cute! 

Check out the Mint Macaron Doily.  It is so neat!  It just adds that little extra color & embellishment.

Look at the words closely.  This embossing folder actually "debosses the words"!  It is super cool!
 
How did I do that?

1. I debossed the word- celebrate.
2. I light sponged Sahara Sand ink over the top of the debossed words.
3. I randomly stamped the 2 different sizes of circles- using Mint Macraon & Sahara Sand ink over the words & the front of the card.
4. I assembled my card as shown.  

I thought this would make a neat card for graduation, birthday, etc.  It could be a male or female card- either one.
