First, let me assure you that there is no right or wrong way to make a card. Many have asked me where my ideas come from, or my ability or creativity to put it all together. Funny, I used to ask those very same questions myself. 

Let me just say, there is inspiration all around you. Look at your environment and find the colors that look great together. Look at your stack of printed paper and choose a color or two to use and accent on the paper. Better yet, look for a color challenge on SCS or your favorite craft site.

For this card, I just chose two of my favorite colors and used them. The DSP has an emboss resist on it, so I watercolored it, set it aside to dry, and then wiped it down. 

The card was assembled like this to meet a sketch challenge. I then sponged the whisper white panels with Highland Heather and added some iridescent pearls.

HAPPY STAMPING!

All of Me

 Virtual hugs are just not the same as physical hugs. During this pandemic we must physically distance ourselves at least 6 feet from each other. We must wear a mask when we are in the presence of others. And we must wash our hands and sanitize the areas where others have touched. So, this image of two people hugging is what we long for and hope to perform in our future. I guess, virtual hugs will have to do for now.
