Thinking of You Book

Hello Friends,
Today I have a card I made for a friend who has been at home recouperating from surgery. This was a pretty quick card to make.


 I stamped the book 3 times & cut each out at different lengths to layer. In between each layer, it's popped up with dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment, punched out the butterflies, & added a ribbon bookmark. I ran my gold Krylon marker all over the edges of the book to give it that gold foil look.

Thanks so much for peeking today! I've got loads of school stuff to do so...
Gotta Go!



The Deets:
Stamps: book-heartfelt creations, Through the trees-PTI
Paper: Far East- DCWV, Very Vanilla, Gold- SU!, Heritage Paper- Sandylion
Ink: Chestnut Roan, Close to Cocoa
Accessories: ribbon, MS butterfly punches, dimensional, Krylon Gold Marker
