Turning now to the card I have made for this blog hop, this is a project for a beautiful friend who needs to know how much you adore them.  I have used the following products:-

Beautiful Friend die
Friend Like You

Taking an A2 white panel of cardstock, I ink blended a focal point using Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink and glued it to my already prepared card base.




I stamped the Friend Like You images using Memento Ink in Rich Cocoa and coloured with Copic markers.  I die cut and backed the images with foam tape and adhered to the ink blended background.

Sentiment time!  I die cut the Beautiful Friend words from white and pink cardstock.  I assembled the two parts and backed it with more foam tape and applied to the background also.  Below it I tucked a smaller sentiment from the Friend Like You stamp set.




To complete this card I simply dotted some specks into the sky.

I hope you like my card, thanks for stopping off on the hop and don't forget to leave your comment below in order to be entered to win a $25 coupon.
