What an awesome day! xoxo
Today's card is for the Simon Says Monday Challenge, Stencils & Stamps.
Looking through my crafting drawers I found these long forgotten 'masks' aka stencils that I probably just had to have, way back when. I do know that they were marked down though! ;) So I figured this would be a great time to actually use one! I took one of the larger ones and placed it on some white card stock and then I carefully sponged a light pink ink over it. It really came out nicely and makes for a wonderful background. (I know, too bad I covered most of it up lol). I have this beautiful wood mounted stamp from Inkadinkado, it is full of encouraging words......LOVE it! I took several different Sakura Glitter and Glaze pens and just 'doodled' over some of the stamp's doodles. Layered stamped square card stock on a pale pink and then using a Spellbinders Lacy Square die layered them all together. I also laced a piece of pink ribbon throughout the 'lacy' die, and tied a bow.
On the inside I also stamped this sentiment from Gina K Designs, Poster Board Sentiments. I think the 2 stamps go hand in hand, and compliment each other nicely.
I will be sending this card to my Niece, Robyn. She's fighting a battle and is kicking cancer's butt! All prayers and well wishes are welcomed!
Thanks so much for stopping by, you know I appreciate you!
Enjoy~~
Well, you certainly have a busy day today. Love your energy and when you get your work done, you get to spend it with your Mom! You are a good daughter, and I am sure that your mother knows it.
ReplyDeleteAbout this card. It is so encouraging and I am sure that it will mean a lot to your Niece. You have encouraged me to make a card for my friend who is taking card of her mother, and could use an uplifting card. Just like this one. I will also include your niece in my payers,
