Shabby Chic
I have been so inspired by all the beautiful cards Jacqueline has been making with the Postcard stamp from Hero Arts that I had to buy it and have a go myself. I decided on the Shabby Chic look so that I could enter it into the current challenge overt at A Blog Named Hero. I have used lots of new stamps on this one, part of my Christmas win over at the Hero Arts Blog. The Tweed background has been stamped in Old Paper Distress ink, I then stamped the Postcard in Wet Cement. The flowers were stamped and fussy cut so I could lift some of the petal points for a little definition. The butterfly is from the "Three Artistic Butterflies" set and stamped onto patterned paper in Dark Green ink.
I had fun with this card and feel as though my mojo is on the way back at last.
Hope you all have a great weekend.

Gorgeous mix of stamps, Sally! Stunning card! Love that pretty ribbon!
I love that you were able to combine so many stamps on this pretty card. Thanks for playing along with us at A Blog Named Hero.
I love the colours! Sometimes just sitting & playing brings the mojo back - having recently been mojoless myself I know how desperate it can feel. Glad yours feels like it's returning!
A very nice card with a lovely mix of colors.
Beautiful card, Sally! I love the color combo you chose and the butterfly is the perfect accent!
