I wasn't sure I would get a card done for Merry Monday this week.
But thanks to my UFO box, I got one done quickly.
This week Linda is hosting the challenge.
When I saw Marcia's card I remembered that I had this image
stamped, colored and tucked away for future use.
I had stamped this a long time ago when stamping with friends
and even got it colored.
You know how it goes. You stamp a bunch of stuff and it
gets set aside for later.
The background was also in the UFO box. I had used some gold
stenciling creme to do some stars. I didn't do a really good job on them
but it wasn't bad enough to throw away.
There's only a few showing and some tiny stars punched
from gold foil filled in.
I edged the background with some gold ink and heat embossed it
in gold to go along with the sentiment.
Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteThis is the most beautiful image and I teared up a bit. The gold is so pretty and I ordered that die when I saw you use it before. I just love it and it looks great with this stamp. The coloring is so soft on the robes. A very sweet card.
ReplyDeleteSo sweet and pretty. What a gorgeous image and love the way you framed it out and the stars.
