Stef gave us the wonderful Etsy shop URBANROSE for our inspiration. When I saw THIS PENDANT. I knew I had the perfect Penny Black stamp. The bg is brayered and the whole circle was spritzed with Pearl Glimmer Mist...which, of course, doesn't show in my photo, but it does put a pretty sheen on the image.
This card will be in the mail tomorrow to a dear friend who really did something so sweet for me today. Good friends are truly treasures!

Wow, you did have the perfect stamp!! I remember one time when there was a challenge with that sort of bare branchy tree I went out to take photos, but ended up never using them. A stamp like this fits the bill perfectly, and I really like the way it's off-centre in the card base. I find that hard to do but always like how it looks.

You were so right....the perfect stamp!! I love the way you highlighted the locket by putting it in the square!! Beautiful job!
