Designs by Lisa Somerville: True Friends

I saw the Card Patterns Sketch up on Sue's Blog earlier today as she's Guest Designing this Week, so while I had some free creative time, I thought I'd give it a go.

All pattern paper is from the Prima Printery Collection, I just love the antique look of this collection. The verse is Footprint in your Heart (QQ1130-E) from Verses Rubber Stamps, stamped in Black on a piece of the Printery pattern paper. All edges are sponged with Gathered Twigs Distress Ink, the Black panel are distress with the Prima Distressing Tool. I added a Button from the Prima, along with some Dyed Seam Binding and Maya Road Trinket Pins to embellish my card.

Details:
Stamps -Verses Rubber Stamps
Card Stock - Black, Soft Sky
Ink - Ranger Black Archival, Distress Ink Gathered Twigs
Other - Seam Binding, Black Soot Distress Stain, Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Maya Road Trinket Pins, Prima Printery Pattern Paper, Prima Buttons, Prima Distressing Tool, Ink Blending Tool

Here's the Card Patterns Sketch , additional Challenge entered - One Stop Craft Challenge - Anything Goes
