Forever Friends Are the Best Kind of Friends...

Posted by Picasa
Isn't that a gorgeous sentiment!  I adore it.  While my forever friend, Maureen, was here, I borrowed the dies and stamps from the PTI Wonderful Words from her and paired it up with my new PTI linen impression plate.  You'll have to look closely to see the impression.  I thought this was a perfect card for this week's Play Date Cafe Color Splash Challenge. 

I'll be back tomorrow with a recap of our Stamp-a-Faire weekend. 

Ingredients:  PTI Wonderful Words, Verve New Mercies Stamps; Kaiser Kraft Gems; SU Basic Black & Cherry Cobbler Ink; PTI Linen Impression Plate

Love that this card is all about the sentiment and the little beads in the flowers are a perfect touch. :)
