Thinking of you




Hi Folks, I have a 'Thinking of You' card to show you today. I used a lovely piece of backing paper from the Prima Firefly range. These papers are so versatile, and I love the colours in this range. I stamped and embossed my background stamp using Wow embossing powder. The stamp is from Chapel Road stamps, and  is great, full of lovely words, like 'happiness, tranquility, love, 'etc. I then coloured the background with a selection of green Memento Inks. I added some hollyhocks using some texture paste coloured with acrylic paint through a stencil. The butterflies are made from chipboard and have been covered with paint and crackle glaze from PaperArtsy.

Thanks for stopping by, xx

  2. This is beautiful Judith, I love the backing paper and the words you've used in the background, and the texture over the top.

  3. The text stamp is framed beautifully by the patterned paper colours & I like the way you picked out the greens from the latter & worked with those for inking the text's background. The texture of the embossed resist serves to accentuate the matt effects of your hollyhocks & butterflies.

  4. This is lovely Judith. I love that Firefly paper and it works as a great background for the sentiment panel. The hollyhock mask has made a super addition, as have the crackle butterflies. A really lovely card. Elaine xxx

  7. And I am the very lucky recipient of this gorgeous card. It is currently in pride of place on my mantlepiece and I think will be there for a while yet ;D. It really is beautiful and came just when I needed it. Thanks you my lovely friend.
