I went with a simple sketch this week because the closer it gets to the holidays the busier I am and I get super giddy when I can just sit down and create something really quick. And that's just what this card was. A fun little 20 minute card (with mass interruptions while the twins stopped me every few minutes to show me the progress on their coloring pages).
To start, I masked off the lower portion of the kind sentiment from Just Breathe with washi tape so I could stamp just the may your heart be kind portion. I stamped the hearts, also masking off the edge so I could give the effect of one being behind the other. I then cut the hearts out, distressed the edges with ink and covered with glossy glaze and a sprinkling of glitter. The papers are scraps from my stash (yay me for using some up!) and I threaded the narrow strip through one of our Banner Bundle dies to make the long pennant. I finished off with green rhinestones and an ivory satin bow.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you have a fabulous start to your weekend!
