#201

I had high hopes for this card... but I think I should have done something with the white space.  I couldn't leave it all white so I added the twine.... I don't think it was the right "fix"....

Happy About FTL201

Hi friends. Can you believe Natasha has created for us over 200 wonderful sketches?! She deserves a hug for that. I love them all and this is no different. However, my stamped background, I made a long time ago and don't remember the colors that I used but it looks like one of them is obvious Basic black with ribbon, my sentiment has a little bling to it with the glitter that I so subtly used. I'm pretty sure that the panel is stamped with Wisteria Wonder and Pretty in Pink onto Whisper White card stock with a Basic Black base. I heat embossed the sentiment by mixing black embossing powder and adding a little glitter to it. My image/sentiment panel is adhered to a piece of Wisteria Wonder. I then finished the card off with Basic Black 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon.

Thank you for visiting us today and I hope that you enjoy this card.
