Sally DT - A 'thinking of you' card

 Hi there! I am here with a clean and simple card for Bee Crafty today, using some of their older stamps. I wanted a simple 'thinking of you' card for a friend.


 I used:

Mandala 7 inkable

Script background stamp 

Beautanicals Wildflower 2 

Wordage Everyday  sentiments 2

I also used Tim Holtz distress inks in Cracked Pistachio, Antique Linen and Tea Dye. The wildflower and Sentiment were stamped with Versafine Clair in Pinecone. I used an ivory 6" square scalloped edge card.

Here is how I made it as a step by step


I inked through the stencil with a make-up brush. I have tried a range of brushes recently and this type are great with stencils. 
I stamped the script in antique linen distress ink to the right of this, up to the edge of the card.
I used the blending brush to add some tea dye distress ink around the edge of the card before stamping the wildflowers in Versafine Clair pinecone.

Finally I stamped the sentiment in the same ink.

Here is another look at the finished card. I think it is another 'all occaisions' card, and any of the sentiments in the everyday words sets would work with it. It would also make a good set of notelets, with stamping in different colours. Very simple, but I hope you like it!


Thanks for looking!
