Carrieanna's Craft Nest

  I decided to make the Borders to Backgrounds stamp set the *star* of this cards (excuse the pun).  As we are in lockdown in the UK, I felt I needed to make something bright and cheery to lighten the mood. I inked the star border stamp using sponge daubers and Real Red, Calypso Coral, Crushed Curry, Granny Apple Green and Pacific Point.  I then stamped a complete sheet of Whisper White using this method. Using the Curvy Dies, I cut a piece of black cardstock and used Granny Apple Green as a mat.  The  word PAPER was cut with the Playful Alphabet dies.  I stamped the 'Hugs, Prayers, Love' and 'Sending positive thoughts and feel-good wishes' sentiments (AC)in Versamark and embossed in white before fussy cutting the sentiments that I wanted to use on my project. Finally I added Rhinestone Basic Jewels and Elegant Faceted Gems and finished the card off with a white twine bow. I hope this card has brightened your day and encourages you to send some paper hugs. ...
