Thank you, Pat!

My friend, Pat did something extraordinarily nice for me this week. I finished this "Thank You" card for her tonight. I'm not worried that she will see it here since she doesn't do computers. So, I felt "safe" sharing the card with you before I give it to her on Sunday. Her favorite color is blue and this paisley pattern I created reminds me of her house. I hope she'll like it!

I stamped the paisley stamp in 2nd generation black in a random pattern and then filled in with the little flower where I thought a space was too blank. I used my Dutch Blue stamp pad and my waterbrush to color everything in and shade a little bit. I used a round sponge inked with Dutch Blue ink from my stamp pad to fill in softly between the paisleys. I popped the sentiment out with 3D foam tape. All products are Close To My Heart.

I am so lucky to have such wonderful friends!
