I love how you used the stamp set. It is a beautiful card. I really like how you cut out and mounted the arrow from the Zip Strip. It really give nice dimension to your card.
Thank You Betty ๐
Helen this card is beautiful with so many details that are perfect. I love your use of Brushstroke. That was a stamp set I bypassed, but now am rethinking with your inspiration!
Hi Crystal, thank you so much ๐ You’ll like the Brushstrokes!
I love the color blocking you achieved with the new “Brushstrokes” stamp. Great color choices and wonderful use of embellishments. The raised arrows and stitching are really effective.
