My Dear Kind & Wonderful Friend

This is a quick and easy but very elegant card, if I do say so myself...lol. Yep that's me patting my back...I truly love this sentiment "My dear kind & wonderful friend" I think it's because that's exactly how I feel about the ones I love. I feel truly blessed and fortunate to have such wonderful women in my life, with the kindest of hearts, that I am truly proud to call my friends. I wish they had this stamp but with the word Mother replacing Friend. Although I am lucky that my mom is both my friend and my mother.

So this card is made with Basic Grey and Soft Sky card stock. I am really going to miss Soft Sky when it retires in August with the rest of the In Colour family. I don't know how Stampin Up! is going to top themselves this year! The background is stamped in Encore Silver ink, with the Baroque Motifs (pg. 120 item#109403) and the sentiment (All Holidays pg. 146 item #109397) is embossed in silver embossing powder. Sheer ribbon is added for that elegant touch and voila! Quick and easy and oh so beautiful!
