Introducing Andrea

My niece Andrea has beautiful script writing, she says it’s all in the pen, however I beg to differ!

Her written sentiment goes well with two Hero Arts background stamps, the envelope pattern in pumice stone distress ink,and silhouette grass in versa mark and very lightly heat embossed in copper. Vintage photo distress marker on the writing and edging

Sticky back canvas,Hero Arts stamp, snow cap paint dabber, heat dried, broken china,dusty concord,worn lipstick and vintage photo distress stains, heat dried, perfect pearls spray

Friendship is Priceless

The Friend definition background stamp from Hero Arts really makes a nice base for a card. I then heat embossed with white for the flowers and used broken china and walnut stain distress inks for the main image
