Hello There

Hey, everyone!
I wanted to make a card for a friend of mine that I haven't been in touch with for a while! I knew for sure that I wanted to use my Hello There (T-2628) stamp set from The Angel Company.
This is such a sweet set! Only $12.95 for all 9 stamps!! Today was the first time I inked it up and I love, love, loved it! I knew I wanted to use the More Mimi (V-855) paper collection from The Angel Company. The 12x12 designer paper is so pretty and bonus...it's DOUBLE-SIDED! You gotta love that! The tags that come with this paper pack are all double-sided, as well. The only challenge I had was in coming up with how to design the card! I wanted to do something new and different. I found this sketch by Heather. Don't you love how she puts the measurements right on the sketches? That definitely takes all the guesswork out of creating with these fantastic sketches she shares!
Here is the card I made for my friend:
I used my Belle Rose and Noir Palette Hybrid inkspots. To color in the image I used my Copic markers, Tombow Brights Markers, Stardust Glitter Gel Pens and Souffle Gelly Pens (all except Copics are from TAC). The button was something I grabbed from my Inspiration Station! The edges of the striped designer paper are rounded with my Corner Chomper, also from The Angel Company!
Here is a close-up of the dimensions on the heart and button layer. My friend liked this card and I hope you do, too! If you make a card with this sketch, be sure to add the link to Mr. Linky on Heather's blog and while you are there check out all the Oz-some things she has in her sidebar!! Have a specTACular day!!
Angel Hugs,
