for today's very cool challenge I went with a grey variegated bag for my background, stamped with stars and hearts. Crumpled it up, applied Golden medium, let dry. Then versamarked and dusted with black and gold powders. Heat gun applied and Presto! My stamped panel is from my stamping friend with a die cut flower pot and bow, accented with silver flower centers.

Nice thinking out of the box! That paper bag looks great gilded in your mixed powders! Love the way you attached your image panel with the brad. Looks like a beautiful tag floating above the textures in the background!

Gorgeous background, Julia, I really like the shades of grey highlighted with gold. Lovely birthday flowers, too; the stamped flowers ina die-cut pot is a very effective look.
