My Friend


So glad I have had a bit of extra time this wknd to add a card to 3 challenges:  One is at Splitcoast for the Featured Stamper; one is at Moxie Fab to create a Hello card and CAS-ual Fridays to create a card with text.  I stamped the bkg, stamps from Hero Arts called Friendship Message.  I coloured the flower stamp with Memento markers and sprayed with water before stamping. 
Thanks for coming by and taking a look.

Supplies:  stamps:  Hero Arts; Basic Grey; Expressions In Ink/Memento markers/pop dots

Oh, I LOVE this card! It's absolutely stunning in hues and simplicity, and the bright border elevates the entire card!! Also, thanks for sharing how you colored those flowers. Although I've been scrapping and card making for several years, I'm still new to stamping, so I have lots to learn. Which is half the fun, right?
