Hi! This card was made for today's Color Combination Challenge: Orchid Opulence, Sage Shadow, and Kraft....
Well, confession time..I had only 1 scrap of Kraft and it had a GIANT circle cut out of the center...That's why it is a MAT! LOL!
The focal image was stamped 3 times. Twice on Whisper White (the head was cut out and added with dimensionals!) and once on Orchid Opulence, (I cut out the heart!)
The small scallops are a SU! punch. The circle was cut with the Coluzzle. The large scallop was cut with a Nestibilities die.
I sponged the edges HEAVILY to get a richer color. The Sage Shadow layer was run through the Cuttlebug.
I colored the HodgePodge Hardware with a Sharpie and added dots with a Signo Pen. I used Rhinestone brads to adhere it to the card.
The ribbon is two ribbons layered. I got them both at the Offray Ribbon Outlet in Hagerstown, MD.
My mom was taken to the ER yesterday and then admitted to the hospital.
After waiting for over 12 hours in an ER bed for a room, I, unfortunately, had to become "Ms. Hoffinstinkle." (She gets things done!) Mother was FINALLY put in a room, and after having a "talk" with her new night nurse, I'm very pleased. I made this for her!

Too funny about the hole in the kraft ink. I hate it when you have to "cause" commotion to get things done..You can be nice for so long...and they should have done things before it got to that point. Glad ot know your nurse is helping things...she should love the card..Beautiful faith!
I have looked at alot of your cards recently........they are so dimensional.....how do you ever get one in an envelope????? they are such works of art.....they should be framed and put on display...............
