Thinking of You again!

Good afternoon all, i hope you are all well and looking forward to the weekend ahead.  It's 42 degrees today so it is surely going to be a hot one here!

Anyway, onto my card.  I don't know why but i was drawn to my 'Thinking of You' stamp again. This card started out as a birthday card but somewhere along the line i changed my mind and reached for the thinking of you stamp!


Supplies:

Kraft
Alla Prima Collection paper stack
EK Success border punch
Tonic butterfly punch
Spellbinders Nestabilites - Heart circles
Circle & scallop punch
Paper & Such sentiment
Tim Holtz distress ink - Walnut stain
Glue stick and bling from stash

Thank you for visiting.  If you leave a comment, i will visit you too. 

Hugs,

Thinking of You

Good evening all, hope you are all having a good day.  I went for a little walk today outside down by the marina. Making the most of the outdoors just now before it gets too hot. Anyway, enough of me, what about my cards? Well, today i have two cards to show you.  Both cards have been made using stamps and sentiments from the fab candy i won recently from the lovely Naomi.  The first one is a practice card, a CAS sympathy card using Prima Marketing Clear Stamps for the image and a Paper and Such sentiment.  The second card is a Paper and Such 'Better Poppies' clear stamp.  I stamped the image straight onto the card, then stamped another image onto cardstock, coloured it with Tim Holtz distress inks ( i cant live without these inks) and then paper pieced them.  The sentiment is also from the same Better Poppies set.  The border was made using an EK Success border punch and the edges were also distressed.  The ribbon was from my stash. What do you think?
