Thank You


This is Thank You card is for SCS Inspiration Challenge IC147. I chose a 5.5 square black card base. I used Basic Grey Lily Kate dp. I love the bottom piece as I think it mimics the carpet in the inspiration picture. For my main image I wanted to incorporate the black leafy image with the quilt texture. I decided to cuttlebug a white piece, then use acetate to run the leafy folder through. I colored the back of the image with permanent black bic marker. I would love to find a permanent marker that truly looks black when it is dried. I loved the look so well, that I used minimal embellishments to finish the card. The picture that inspired me can be found here http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=113811&d=1222482056
