Belated Birthday

Hi everyone!!  I saw on Nichole's blog that the theme for the blog hop this month was black.  I've really enjoyed making black on black cards lately so this was a perfect excuse to make another card!!  I used my Polka Dot Basics set, stamped with Versamark and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  I heat embossed the sentiment from Birthday Bash Sentiments with white embossing powder.  I added the big button to the bow, it seemed perfect!!
I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by!!
