Friends...

Morning my crafting friends, hope this finds you all safe and well?  Thank you for visiting my post today I do appreciate it, I love to read all your comments whatever they may be lol!

Today is my 9th Wedding Anniversary so Happy Anniversary to my Hubby Ian, this is not his card as at time of scheduling this I had not even made one whoops! Better get a move on!

I am still playing with Sheena Douglass Taste of India at the moment as you can tell lol! I loved this stamp SD Taste of India Henna Mango the first time I saw it, there is so much you can do with it but I just wanted to keep it simple for now. I inked some card up with Tim Holtz Distress Inks Squeezed Lemonade, Fired Brick and Peacock Feathers then stamped the Henna mango with my Versamark Ink Pad and heat embossed with Papermania Embossing Powder Black Sparkle, I rubbed round the edge of the card with TH Black Soot and painted the design in with TH Fired Brick and Crushed Olives, I could have gone further but did not want to ruin it. I matted this onto Creative Expressions Foundation Card Burgundy then onto CC Kraft card. I added the sentiment from CE Unmounted Stamps Classic Sentiments using TH Black Soot.

Using more Burgundy card I stamped the boarder from SD T of I Mandala stamp set with Versamark Ink Pad then heat embossed with Papermania Embossing Powder Gold, I cut these out and attached them to the edge of the card as seen. It wasn't until I stuck them down I realized that I should have stamped a longer piece of card so I could have line up the two sides so they matched, next time...!

There you have your finished card, dimensions 5" X 7"

Thank you for looking, now I had better go and make Hubby a card, Jacquie xxx
