Wishing...

I made this card specifically for the Simon Says Stamp Flickr group challenge #10 - Dots N Spots.  I was used several Simon Says Stamp branded products, and I love how the card turned out.

I added some distress ink to embossing paste, and applied it to a card panel 3/4 of the way up the card.
While that was drawing, I inked some paper with the matching color and die cut  a sentiment strip and word.

I stamped and embossed in white a sentiment on the strip.  The die word was double stacked and covered with glossy accents. To add just a bit more pop on this monochromatic card, I added some sequins. The finished panel was trimmed a bit and popped up on a matching card base.



Thanks for stopping by!

Love the color, background and sentiment. That's how I feel about a few of my friends, that have moved. TFS
