Welcome
Life has returned to some semblance of normal, but it may not be for long - life itself is very uncertain here, as DH has become very fragile, and is rapidly failing...
I would also like to welcome my latest follower, Autumn from Sew Paper Paint, do pop over for a visit, she is an inspiring artist.
I made this card some time ago, so thought I would add some interest to this post by sharing it.
The brush stroke stamp is one from a set of clear stamps, and I can recall it being almost an "odd man out" in the set, but cannot find the set now to be able to name it, (because of time constraints, not disorganization.)
I stamped it three times using the Misti to get good coverage with the Distress inks, Chipped Sapphire, Faded Jeans and Broken China, and then flicked water over it for added interest
The sentiment was silver embossed, and I finished the card with some rhinestone flowers.
I have not got the time to link this up to challenges, or to follow up later.
Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog - may your day be blessed
