I received an email from "The Greeting Farm" and Sandy had an awesome copic tutorial for "Soldier Ian". I was awestruck with the image of Ian and real soldiers... and I've been making cards ever since!! :)
(Check out Sandy's YouTube tutorial below)
My passion for creating cards for "Our HEREOS" is to be an encouragement to them as well as inspire them to write home to their family & friends!!
Words cannot convey my deep felt gratitude for all that they do!!!
Since I love 'The Greeting Farm" stamps so much... I thought I'd use the brand new
"Miss Anya Scarves" for my winter card inspiration...
Pearlescent Paper
"Ice White" Pearl Pen for the snow
Martha Stewart "Snowflake" border punch
Snowflakes from the border & other misc. punches
Hot Fix Rhinestones & Applicator
Here's the OWH sketch I used...
