World Card Making Day

 Just a quick post tonight, I have been out most of the day but made this card this morning especially for World Card Making Day.  I have been wanting this Hero Arts stamp for ages after seeing these beautiful cards that Heather has made using it.
The background is made with Bundled Sage distress ink and two of my favourite design block stamps from Hero Arts.S 4878 Old letter Writing and S5213 Dots and Flowers, the PP is from Basic Grey.
I have also been practising with my new sewing machine.  Heather made some stunning fabric flowers with the same stamp so I had to give it a try.
Two fabric flowers and a vellum one.  The dark one is actually a beautiful plum shade but the photograph makes it look very dark.
Hope you have had some fun and found time to make a card today.

I love all three flowers you've made - the vellum is fantastic and I so love the fabric flowers too.

Beautifully done, Sally - isn't it great when a stamp does double duty like this one?
