Hello Friend

This is my entry for this weeks Card Patterns challenge.  I think this sketch has lots of possibilities, and it spoke to me!





All of the papers are from Bazzill.  I used three Hero Arts stamps.  The background panel is Four Leaf Grid, and was inked with Hero Arts Shadow Ink, Soft Brown.  The duck is a new stamp, Just Ducky, and was stamped with Versafine, Vintage Sepia.  I like the country, folk look of this duck stamp and will definitely be trying it again soon.  The sentiment is from Sparkle Clear, Love That.  It was also stamped with Vintage Sepia.  I did some sewing machine stitching and added a chipboard heart.  The heart was painted with Tim Holtz Crackle Paint, Vintage Photo.  Lastly added basic white ribbon from Michael's and a button in my stash.

    Love this card, Nancy! Nice take on the sketch! Love the colors you used and the duck is so cute! :)

    I wanted to let you know that I tried, several times, to look at your last post, and was unable to get to it. Hope you figured out what was wrong. I'd love to see it, as the title intrigued me. Maybe you could post it again...? Still don't see it here. Hugs! :)
