I get to add today's card to several different challenges!
I am playing along with the girls in today's TLC365 challenge where we learned how to distress with acrylic paint and inks via a Beate tutorial. I chose to use 3 different colors of ink on mine and I think it turn out OK. Thanks for the fun new technique Beate and Holly!
I am also adding it to this month's Fan Club central theme #CT0212 because I made this card for my friend Allie who just recently sent me some happy mail and I want to return the favor and include this card. It also fits in the #WORD0212 where we were to use items that spell out the word BUDS.
B...Blue thread and rhinestones
U...UTEE (Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel) on the sentiment
D...Distressed acrylic technique
S...Stitching
It also works for #CAS158 which is to use stitching
It is a very simple looking card but I loved learning a new technique!
Have a happy Monday my friends!
Hugs,
True

This is so pretty. I love the softness of the colors as they gently caress the embossed portions of the card. Just lovely. It is sure to brighten your friends day!
