Thanks

I wanted to share a card I made for a recent Scramble at the Hero Arts Flickr group.  Our hostess Janet asked us to use words prominently in our design.


Starting with a subtle tone-on-tone check design paper, I overstamped Hero Arts Friend Definition and then overlayed that with their Large Lotus Pattern and spread on some texture paste.  When that had dried, I trimmed it on an angle, added a black frame and put it on a white card base.  I also added some black enamel dots and a die-cut from Hero's Thanks Stamp and Cut set that my friend Linda had shared with me.  To finish I wrapped some crinkle ribbon around the top of the card.

Thanks for stopping by today!
