Thinking of You During This Difficult Time

Happy Monday to you friend!  I hope the rest of your weekend was fabulous.  I just wanted to pop in with a little card I made last night using the newest CR84FN Color Challenge. 


Took some woodgrain patterned paper from Crate Paper's Emma's Shoppe and distressed it with my fingernail and then distressed the edges with Walnut Stain Distress Ink. 


Stamped my leaf image in green distress ink...


Tied around some twine, tied it into a bow and added a die cut flower that I layered and stitched with a brown button. 


Lastly, I stamped my sentiment with Walnut Stain ink.

Here is a pic of the colors!


Well, that is all today!  I hope you have a great one.  Thank you for dropping by!

Lindsay

    The walnut stain makes this totally look like a thin sheet of real wood. Too cool.
