Wish Big!

2009-wish-big-en-francais
I have just loved this small western flower in the True Friend Stamp Set and have enjoyed using it again and again. I needed a quick card for one of my son’s girl friends and her favorite colors are teal and brown so I put this together for her the other day. The En Francais is another one of those very versatile background stamps that are great to have on hand especially when doing a bohemian type of card like this one.

Cardstock: Tempting Turquoise, Chocolate Chip, and Whisper White
Stamp Sets: Short and Sweet, En Francais and True FriendEmbellishments: 3/8″ Twill Tape, Stampin Dimensional, and Distressing tool from the Cutter Kit.

I took the small piece of Chocolate Chip card stock and crumpled it tightly into a tiny ball to give it an all over wrinkled, prune effect…then un did it and finger pressed it flat. I used the distressing tool on the Tempting Turquoise card stock and highlighted the edges with Chocolate Chip Classic Ink using one of the large sponges.

This is a wonderful template that is appropriate for many different cards and I’d recommend you keep it in your reference file.

I hope your weekend is going great, and you have a blessed day! Katherine
