My Meadow - a Thank You card

I loved the Stampin' Up "Water Front" stamp set.  I loved the "Snow Front" Stamp set.  And now Stampin' Up has come up with the  "My Meadow" stamp set - another stamp set to create your own scenes- this time Spring and Summer.  I am in love!

Tonight I just started playing, not having a definite scene in mind.  One stamp led to another, and before I knew it I had a Spring scene by the water, featuring a Gazebo.

The finished image was die cut with the Stitched Rectangle Die and added to a Crumb Cake card front at a slight angle.

An Early Espresso frame, die cut with 2 sizes of Stitched Rectangle dies, was adhered over top of the scene creating a framed look.

The sentiment, from "Sending You Thoughts" was stamped directly onto the sky using Early Espresso ink.
