I'm so happy it's Friday, and finally a chance to sit down and make a card. Work has been so busy, and it feels so good to forget that for a little while.
I really love this image and sentiment by Angie Blom, from Vicki, Catherine & Leica Girls stamp set. I'm pretty much a person who makes friends easily, but to have friends for life is a real blessing. These are friends, who have been there for me through the good and difficult times. I really thank God for them. Here's a card dedicated to my "Friends for LIFE".
I did some colouring and paper piecing, and stamped the background with Classified Newsprint for some interest. Last weekend, my friend and I went to a WA craft show, and I bought some metal leaf to try. I adhered that to the little arrow wood veneer.
Hope you like the card :)
Happy weekend!
Kary

Kary, I just love that stamp. I started to use mine, but never finished it. I put it aside and moved on to another project and now it's floating in the Land of Unfinished Projects. I love the colors you used and I LOVE the metal leafing. I have yet to try that...but I really want to. Well, take care my FWF Forever friend. lol.
This is so fabulous! Love the thought behind it, the colours, the design... so sweet, Kary. Have a great weekend!
You ALWAYS blow me away. Love everything about this card (the mix of paper-piecing and coloring is just outstanding).
Wonderful card Kary - your paper piecing is fabulous on this , and the stamped newsprint background!
Love the sparkle on the arrow - I have never had much success with foil.
