Thinking of you and Smiling!

Hello and HAPPY FRIDAY!!  Today I have a VERY special card to show to you that I am soooooo proud of and I hope you like it as much as I do.  Today's card is using 3 of the new High Hopes Rubber Stamps images and also 2 of their new sentiments, check it out and please let me know what you think! ....

As you can see in the photo I used acetate to make a "window" in the card so that both images would be together in the scene.  I also added grass boarders to create the background effect along with a strip of "dirt" created using a Cricut Cuttlebug Embossing Folder called Tiny Bubbles and the background sky using the Skyward Cloud Embossing Folder on both the card front and the blue sky in the background.

Here is a look at the inside page....

Here is a view of the inside of the card where I continued the embossed clouds and also added a pocket and some Herb seed packets to make this card a perfect gift!

Supplies Used:

* High Hopes Rubber Stamps Images: Wheelbarrow Ride, Planting Patty, Fly, Smile & Smiling

* Copic Xpress It Cardstock

* Copic Sketch Markers

* Memento Ink: Tuxedo Black

* Prima Chalk Edger: Pastel Blue

* Sakura Stardust Pen
