Hi there!
The wonderful thing about challenges is they spark your creativity! Karen Baker has started a challenge...just for fun...and just to inspire! It's called Carbon Copied. She and one other artist will use the same stamp set and the same challenge. What a fabulous and unique idea! Her first challenge blog is JayGee's Nook and using the Papertrey Ink Iconic Images. I thought I would play along too.

I am also adding this to Scrapmaster's Paradise: I love Being Purple Challenge and Jules Crafty Snippet Challenge.
I used three different stamps sets and snippets from my craft box to create this Thank You card. The off white paper actually has the look of linen. I believe it is from a paper stack from DCWV. My lavender panel was created by background stamping Mehndi Medallions from Wplus9 then I used a border punch for a little decorative trim. Next I used Hero Arts Old French Writing, the sentiment and cameo focal image are from Papertrey Ink's Iconic Images. I love the distressed images in this set. I added some ribbon and button embellishments, and finishing off with a little fancy flourish by Jolee's Boutique. I forgot to mention that I added some white craft ink to the edges for a softer look!
Thanks for taking a part of your day and visiting with me! I must stop playing and get back to work.
