This is my card for today's Ways to Use It challenge which was to use numbers. My numbers are on the antique clock stamp.
First I stamped SU Damask BG with CTMH Desert Sand. Then I brayered over it with the same color and stamped Hero Arts Old French Writing and SU Artifacts in Ranger Distressed Vintage Photo on top of that. I colored a few of the leaves with colored pencil.
The sunflower was the fun part. I found a sunflower head with dried petals hanging over the porch rail this morning and couldn't resist picking off the dried petals to use for a card. I attached the petals with glue dots and put a vintage button on top. The fiber is Adornments and the sentiment is computer generated. tfl
