Note of Thanks


How is the weather where you are? It is warming up for us here in Northern Arizona but with the warmer temps comes wild fires :( We have a terrible one burning some gorgeous area right now and we have been getting a lot of bad smoke from it. I hope our monsoon rains come early this year. On the positive side it is wonderful to be outside more again. I have a little flower garden in my front yard and I am back out there tending to it. 

Speaking of flowers, I pulled out the Wplus9 Spring Blossoms set along with Basic Banners to create my one layer card. I did a bit of masking after I stamped the banner and sentiment and filled in around it with flowers and leaves. I used my Memento Luxe inks for all my stamping in the colors, Sweet Plum, Morocco, Angel Pink, Olive Grove, Northern Pine, Peanut Brittle, Toffee Crunch and Espresso. I do love these inks! For a bit of texture around my card front I used a metal distress tool that you roll on the paper and it makes marks kind of like sewing but without it fully puncturing the paper. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great day!
