Fabulous Friend

Tuesday Feb 2, 2010

You know how sometimes you recieve a phone call that comes just when you need it?? Well today I recieved a call just like that from my good buddy Vicki, it was such a great call and came at just the right time. I am also meeting with Vick tonight and wanted to make her a card to let her know that she is such a fabulous friend and a fabulous person. So here is what I came up with… I hope you like it.

Now there are quite a few stamp sets involved with this card so I will list them all for you – Scribble this, Simply Said, Pick A Petal and Really Retro. The base card is Chocolate Chip with some Tea Party DSP. The rest of the colours used are Chocolate chip, Almost Amethyst, Kiwi Kiss and So Saffron. I have also used the 5 Petal flower punch and some wide Chocolate Chip grosgrain ribbon.

Now once I finished this card I then made another in another colour way….

This one uses all the same stamp sets, but is varied with the Sweet Always DSP, and the colours are Pink Pirouette, Pretty-in -pink, pumpkin pie and Regal Rose. The greeting on both cards is stamped in Whisper white Craft ink and embossed with white embossing powder. And of course there is some stampin glitter to give both cards a bit of bling.

thanks for looking,

till next time,

happy stamping.
