Reason To Celebrate Distressed Swirl Congrats

July 17, 2026

I used some leftover Silver Stampin’ Hot Foil from a card I designed for my Mid Summer Stamp Camp and applied it to some dry embossed cardstock to create a very distressed background. I then heat embossed the sentiment from the Reason To Celebrate Set. I’m sending this card to my niece to congratulate her on having her book published.
