The card uses a stamp called May Your Troubles, found here.
It's a lovely Irish blessing that works well for different occasions. A wedding shower or wedding celebration card, new home or baby - all fit with this sentiment. You can even use this for a nice birthday card for your Irish friends!
I love the Celtic knot border around the text and was happy when the detail came through even after embossing it in gold.
I used a cryogen white cardstock, which as a very pretty shimmer to it, but is hard to capture in a photo. I really wish you could see the soft, subtle shimmer on the paper.
For the background design I took a Celtic knot border from a Silhouette cut file, copied it several times and welded it together to make one overall piece. Using a white on white palette I think the design adds a touch of elegance without overpowering the sentiment.
