I've had these Chapel Road Art Stamps for a while and I'm happy to finally use them. The vertical strip is a copper mesh craft material that I bought long ago, thinking it would be cool to use it in some way. When I assembled the card, I decided the image panel was a bit too small (the stamp is meant for an atc) so I enlarged it a bit using real sand paper. The inside of the card may have this quote, which also came with the stamp sheet: Countless as the sands of the sea are human passions. -Nikolai Gogol. Not sure if I'll use it, otherwise it might be another quote about time for a birthday.

I love the combination of all the different textures on the card. So cool that you used actual sand paper!! I love the abstract background paper - beautiful colors. And the stamp is very cool!!
