Just Because

With all of the social media products available to us today I do not think we take the time to send a card to someone "just because" - because something reminded us of them and we are thinking of them or because we heard they might be going through a tough time and could use a bright spot in their day.

I started by stamping the quilt blocks from CTMH My Acrylix™ Stitched With Love (B1425) at the bottom of a card from a 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" White Cards & Envelopes, Value Pack (X254). Then I stamped the young lady on a piece of on White Daisy cardstock (1385). I used an Exclusive Inks™ Archival Black Stamp Pad (44751). I colored the images using Watercolor Pencils (3505) and a Blending Pen (3174). I cut around young lady using a craft knife with the Versamat™ (Z1279).

I cut a piece of Jubilee B&T Duos™ (Z7181B) to fit the card front without covering the quilt blocks and used the Scallop Border Punch (Z1851) on the bottom edge.

The sentiment was stamped with an Exclusive Inks™ Black Stamp Pad (Z2105). 3-D Foam Tape (Z1151) was used to attach the young lady to the card.

All items, except the craft knife, used to create this card are from Close To My Heart.
