Merci

If it is Saturday, it must be my reveal for the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge! Today we have another great sketch for you that gives you a lot of flexibility! One of the elements is embossing and you can dry or heat emboss! I started my card with some lovely new Websters Pages (happy sigh...) and added a panel of embossed Core'dinations that I sanded to reveal the pale yellow interior. I then added some lace and vine trim and finished the card with a stamped label from Victorian Fripperie. I stamped the "Merci" stamp from the same set with Aqua Mist ink and embossed it with clear powder for a glossy finish.

This is a special card for a special someone and I hope she likes it. Without giving this person away (we all know and love her!), I want to share how incredibly grateful I am that I get to play a bit in her whimsical world. Merci, indeed! :)

Supplies: Stamps - Victorian Fripperie (WMS), DP/Lace Trim - Country Estate Collection (Webster's Pages), Vine Trim (my stash), Card Stock - Chocolate Chip (SU!), Vintage Cream (PTI), Whitewash Collection (Core'dinations), Ink - Chocolate Chip (SU!), Aqua Mist (PTI), Cuttlebug, Dies (Spellbinders)
