I'm not sure if this image from Sassy Studio Designs is likely to make you feel hot or cool, but it is the perfect choice for one of my daughters with a birthday in July. She used to take belly dancing classes!
I've used one of my favourite colour combos....bright and bold, and I've also played with some gold metallic and bronze sparkle card. You'll see that my Nestie die has been used in three sizes, using the out of the box technique for the first layer. A flourish stamp worked well on the DP and for a bit of interest around the image. The border panel is shaped with a MS punch, and then accented with gold pen and some black doodling. A piece of metallic ribbon, a few gems and a few dabs of stickles gives it a bit more sparkle.
The sentiment is aother freebie from Paulette at Create with TIC.
