OH, HELLO

Saturday is a perfect time to spend a little time in the craft room.  But who wants to spend the whole day indoors when the weather is beautiful.  The solution is a quick and easy card, perhaps like this one:



To make this card, you will need:  Oh, Hello stamp set; Soft Suede and Whisper White card stock; Smoky Slate, Whisper White and Cherry Cobbler ink pads; Daffodil Delight and Gumball Green markers; Simply Scored and Simply Scored Borders Plate; Ovals framelits and Big Shot; Linen Thread; Sponge Dauber; Two-Way Glue; Stampin' Dimensionals
Hints: 
*Dry emboss the zigzags using the Simply Scored and Borders Plate;  rub white ink over the embossed area using the sponge dauber.

*Stamp in this order:  chevron oval, then greeting; then flower inked using markers.  Then cut out oval using the framelit.

* When using markers on the stamp itself, remoisten before stamping onto card stock by breathing (huffing) onto the stamp.

Here's what I did with the inside using some Retro Fresh This and That washi tape:


Greeting is from the Sassy Salutations set.

That's it for today.  Have a great weekend!  See you next time,
Trish
