Thinking of You


The Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge is to make a "thinking of you" card, and they're featuring Hero Arts products, so I've used a Hero arts sentiment stamp on this card. The hand-crocheted medallion was a blog candy gift from Jessi Fogan, and I added a snippet of mauve cardstock, die cut with a SB circle. On top of that I used a SB Medallion Five die in white, but cutting it a 2nd time in black, and snipping the center piece and placing it on top for a little contrast. A metallic brad to the center and a random piece of soft pink houndstooth dsp, and this was done!

Thanks for stopping by and make it a great day!

This is very cool! As soon as I saw that doily I wondered if it was from Jessi. Love the multicolored medallions nestled inside the doily. Awesome!
