Scrappy background with a star embellishment

 This is the final card I made with the scrappy backgrounds I created a few weeks ago.  I cut the piece I had into three both ways and glued them equidistant from each other on a kraft card front.  I stamped over all with my stipple stamp (SU) with brown ink which works to unify all the pieces with the card.  I positioned a length of brown twill tape near the middle and tucked a stamped greeting below it and used my sewing machine to stitch both of them into place.  The greeting looked a little plain so I stippled it as well with brown ink.  My focal point is a 3D embellishment which features an punchie star, a scalloped circle and another of those brown and gold paper medallions!!!  You can see here, here and here the other cards that feature these medallions.  Anyone know what tasty treat was housed in them?  Click on the my FEATURED POST on the upper right hand side or click this link and leave me a comment!!  This card is going into my stash.
