Loonie Stamper's Challenge - Happy Birthday Dee!!

Those Loonie Girls are at it again!! This time it is Dee's birthday and ... you guessed it .... she doesn't know we are all making her Birthday cards!! LOL - what fun!!
This whole card started out with that piece of Kraft cardstock. I used Faux Ribbon to create my own lined paper. I think it is funky and I have more of it that you will see on more cards in the future!!
Then, I created the Raspberry Fizz border. I stamped the Baroque Border on white cardstock with Versamark and then embossed it with clear embossing powder. Then I used a sponge and covered the cardstock with Raspberry Fizz ink!! It is a technique called embossing resist (if you haven't heard of it).
The rest of the card is pretty straight forward!! I hope Dee enjoys it!!
Now off to see what the Loonie Girls and all the other surprise guests created for Dee:
Regan, Jewels, Char, Wendy, Maria, and what did Dee create????
and the others:
