Playtime....

 
Sometimes I need a thank you card, and flowers and cute just don't really work if it's for a guy.  So I had a play and made up something a little different.  

This is the Scots Pine stamp from Art-Kure, and I've heat embossed using a green ink pad and clear embossing powder.  This allowed me to add a background with distress inks, using the negative cut-out from a Spellbinders die as a stencil.

Otherwise, just some washi tapes, a sentiment, a few black gemstones and some doodling using a black marker.

Thanks for stopping by.  Hope life is treating you good.
