the first ever CAS-ual Fridays card challenge!
OK, so in my excitement my mind started spinning and I felt like a little child at an egg hunt when they yell, "GO!" What stamps do I have with text? What papers? What am I going to MAKE?! AAGGHH!!!
Then I stopped a minute, took a deep breath, and thought. For several days. Ah HA! Thank God for Hero Arts...I have an awesome typewriter cling... I have the friendship definition text background... I have tons of sentiments. I can do this!
Here is what I came up with after I had a chance to regroup. I stamped the Friend Definition cling in poppy chalk ink onto a card from the Sunshine folded cards set. I made a rough frame using grey ink and several different "Thinking of You" sentiments. On a separate sheet of white paper I embossed the typewriter in black, cut out, added the sentiment and heart gem, and attached it with pop dots for some dimension. (I think I have the "text" part of this challenge covered here, don't you?)
Hero Arts Stamps Used: (CG280) My Type, (CG125) Friend Definition, (CL490) Sending Smiles Messages, (CL272) All Occasion Messages, (CL350) Big All Time Greetings, (CL140) Thinking of You, (C2654) Thinking of You
I hope you are having a good week...sunny and 70 degrees here, enjoying every minute of it!
Take good care,
Judy
