A Friend is...... Try Stampin' on Tuesday #115

A state of emergency still exists in some communities in cottage country to the north and east of here.  However, in some communities, it has been lifted as the flood waters have peaked and are starting to recede.  Have we had Spring yet?

This card is for the sketch challenge with Try Stampin' on Tuesday here 
It's such a dull day here today so I thought I would make a card with some bling!






The Raspberry Ripple base is layered with a Very Vanilla cardstock that has been embossed twice - once with the lines folder, and then with Pewter embossing powder.

Some glimmer brads were inserted in the corners of this embossed layer.

The focal image is one of the quotes from the "Feel Good" stamp set, which is embossed on a rectangle of Whisper White card stock using Pewter embossing powder.  This rectangle is layered with Raspberry Ripple card stock.  A 2 1/2" circle of DSP from the Print Poetry DSP stack, layered with a circle of Raspberry Ripple, is attached under one end of the focal image.  A banner of Summer Starfruit is attached over the circle, but underneath the focal image.

Here's a summary of the stamp/materials used:

Stamp: Feel Goods
Inks: Versa Mark
Papers: Raspberry ripple, Very Vanilla, Whisper White, Summer Starfruit, Print Poetry DSP
Accessories: Pewter embossing powder, 2 1/2" circle punch, Glimmer brads, Lines folder, dimensionals.

Thanks for stopping by.  Comments are appreciated.
