A Farewell
Today is my very last post for Skipping Stones Design, a team that I have been a part of for well over a year. The team, past and present, are holding a little hop today to thank the owner of Skipping Stones Design, Heather, for a great experience of showcasing her amazing designs. I wish you the best Heather, with your family and career!
I used Breathtaking Butterflies, Dandelion Dreams, and Garden Kiss to create my custom background.
*I used old Stampin' Up! pigment ink for the blue, coral, navy and saffron. I used Antique Linen distress ink for the dots and small butterflies.
I enjoyed making my own background paper for this card, random stamping is fun!...thanks to Moxie Fab World's 75 Creative Card Challenges Week: Make your Own Background Paper Challenge for the inspiration!
You should have arrived from Wendy's Blog. If you want to start at the beginning, please stop by the Skipping Stones Design Blog. There are a few prizes up for grabs in the form of great Skipping Stones Design Stamps, so please be sure to leave a comment on the stops today.
