Thank you card

Hello everyone, and welcome to Catherine who is joining us as a new follower this week. We have just spent a few days in Stratford upon Avon, which is one of my current favourite places to visit, so I'm feeling rested and inspired. When I got back I wanted to make a card with some new stencils and glitter paste so I was very pleased to see that the current challenge at Casology is SHINE




Happily my card fits both challenges



I kept things very simple using a panel of black card with a bluebell stencil from Glitzcraft and a couple of different colours of texture paste. I spread some paste onto a piece of card, let it dry and then die cut the sentiment which is a die from Clearly Besotted Stamps.

I'd also like to enter this into the
That's Crafty Challenge - use texture paste
and
Southern Girls Challenge - sparkle and shine with a bit of bling


Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Hugs
Carol x
