FLY

Hello my friends, hope you are all well and busy crafting!!  I haven't been doing too much - I've developed carpal tunnel or something strange with my fingers and wrist... So I'm trying to rest it as much as possible!  Sorry I haven't been making the comments rounds that much but I promise I'll be back in the swing of things real soon :) 


The card I'm sharing tonight is stamped with one of the Unity/Webster's Itty Bitty's - Christmas Delivery.  I won this set way back in May and it's finally landed in my hands two days ago (long story, but just glad I have it now ;) 
Used a simple technique with Distress Inks for the colored background...- wanted to link the video with Jennifer McGuire demonstrating it, but I cannot find it!!  If you go to YouTube.com and search for Jennifer McGuire Distress Inks, you'll find anything you've ever wanted to know about them!  Also used a lot of Pink Paislee's Artisan Elements.. they are so gorgeous!  

I'm entering this card in two challenges:  Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog's - All White
                                                           Charisma Cardz - Distressing

Well I'm off to see the end of the Tigers ballgame!!  Thanks for reading, have a great evening and weekend my crafty friends :)

    This is so charmingly lovely. I just adore the clean, crisp ivory palette paired with a more distressed, grungy (in a good way!) stamped image.

    Many thanks for your blog comment today, it's wonderful to met you!

    Wishing you a joyful weekend,
    Jessica

    Your colored background looks so beautiful!!!!!! Love the "FLY" on the top of your card too. How perfect. Sorry your hands are hurting you so much. Hope you can rest them and get a little relief from the pain.
