Thoughts and Prayers + GIVEAWAY // Hero Arts

Here's another little break from all the Christmas cards, inspired by THIS pin.


The background was made using an older Hero Arts and Basic Grey collaboration stamp set - I stamped and embossed the sentiment all over the background (doing a wee bit of masking), and then went in with some watercolors.
I used the STAMPtember Simon Says Stamp and Hero Arts collab stamp and die set, Prayers, to create the sentiment. I layered two pieces of vellum behind the sentiment, to make sure it stood out from the hectic background, but still allowed the background to shine.
A few gems top off the card!

Now, for a Christmas giveaway, to pass on some stamps and dies to a more loving home ;)
