I am making cards for my stash and decided to make a few for special friends when the time is right!! This one features a large greeting by
Desert Diva which I laser printed onto white cardstock and trimmed to size. I wanted to see if I could get the yellow "Friend" to stand out more but unfortunately the green water colour I applied did not help any. It took me a bit of time to see what could be done to salvage the greeting but I finally decided to stamp over the letters with a small stamp set. That worked better than I had expected. I used my tracing wheel on the four sides to add some texture. I added a yellow label punchie which was cut in half and mounted each piece to the long edges and then pierced the edge with a push pin. I tucked in a dark blue half circle in the center of each one and finished off the greeting with a clear rhinetstone in each half circle. Pretty happy with that! I adhered a quarter sheet of decorative paper (Pixabay) to a coordinating card front and then mounted my embellished greeting over it. Pretty happy with the over all look of this one! I am stretching my comfort zone using large greetings. Therese
