"FRIEND" CARD



Here is the card I promised... I hope you like it.

Since I don't own a lot of pattern paper, I made my own using the technique I learned from Linda Duke (Linda's Works of Heart...blog listed in my favorites). I first stamped my cardstock with a background stamp and then did the technique over it. I used the Glimmer Mist technique on cardstock with tissue paper over it. I used both cardstock and the tissue paper. I used a spellbinder oval die then stamped my saying & sponged Distress Ink over that. The little flowers are handmade from a Martha Stewart flower punch and Parchment paper. I then embossed the flowers and put together with silicone and added a little pearl. The leaves of the flowers are colored on the back with Copic G24 for a little hint of color.

Tissue Paper
