January Birthday Card

I've been making handmade cards for quite sometime now and I thought it would be nice to incorporate the birthmonth color motif in them.  The birthstone for January is Garnet hence this card RED, lots and lots of red!

For the red background paper, I dry embossed and sanded the paper to distress it.
Then, I layered a stamped image and sentiment that was heat embossed with clear powder.
To add more red, I added two different kinds of ribbon.
Finally, several red blings were randomly added to finish the piece.
Oh, how I love the different textures!

Happy crafting!
