Someone Special.

A happy find.  Whilst looking through all my stash for a stamp that I knew I had but couldn't remember where I had put it I found a box of cards that I had made at various workshops and never shown.  This is one of them.

Would have been made at a Julie Hickey workshop at least 5yrs ago using Julie Hickey stamps. The background is made from a piece of card smooshed into Distress Oxide inks and then flicked with water. I stamped the flower on top,  cut out  and then  raised up with 3d pads onto  slightly larger black card  which I adhered directly to the card blank. A larger  thin die cut frame was also adhered to give the illusion of a picture frame.  I stamped the sentiment onto the rest of the smooshed card and die cut the banner. Finished off with gems and a small piece of ribbon. 

I eventually did find  the said missing stamp (4hrs later) after I had looked in every box and cupboard twice and then thought to just check one more place and of course there it was! I know. Should have gone to Spec Savers.
