Thinking of You

 Hello friends.  I have a new card to share today.  I made this one for a friend who recently had knee surgery.  I used the Color Hues Challenge colors of green and gold, and no flowers. 😃


The pattern paper is from a Honey Bee Christmas pad.  I like that the green had the gold stripes in it.  I used mat gold foil card to cut the frame (Recollections) and the strip from Spellbinders Ribbon & Trim dies.  The frame die cuts out the center so I had to cut it out of white also to stamp the sentiment from SU Happy Thoughts (ret.).  I mounted the white oval with foam tape to the center of the gold frame after gluing the strip and frame down.  I added 3 small gold beads for a little bling.  I think the card is clean and simple but elegant.

I will also add this to Darnell's NBUS #84 as this is the first time I have used both die sets.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day.

Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
