Third card for this weeks stamp set of the week...

Hi and happy Friday...

I have the third card sample using Gifts of Kindness stamp set today to share with you.

This is a quick and simple style card for when you need a card quickly, but still want it to look beautiful.


This card uses some of the In Colours that are leaving us at the end of May!!!! Yes, I have used Pistachio Pudding, Strawberry Slush and Baked Brown Sugar. These are the colours that retire when our current catalogue finishes at the end of May...in fact only about 12 weeks (or maybe 11...gasp!!!)

I have used the marker pens to ink up the images here, and when I stamped the main image panel i wasn't too careful, so you can see part of the image hasn't stamped properly. This gives a rustic, faded appearance which is really very delicate.

The background is using the same method but even more faint, by stamping off some of the colour onto scrap card first.

I have added some paper piercing in the corners and then covered the blossoms with Dazzling Details glittery glue. Really easy to apply, and leave to dry for this sparkly subtle effect.

So I hope you have liked these cards and they have let you see some ideas using the stamp set.

I know where todays card is going but the other two cards are sat in my box and I will pop them in the post for the next two people who comment on this post as a way of saying thank you for your time and support.

SO thank you for stopping by and see you again soon.
