Cards for Kindness

Cards for Kindness

I colored this Suzy's Spring Flowers Watercolor Print using some Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. I then used one of the  Honey Bee Stamp Hexagon Layering Background Stencils using Distress Oxide in Carved Pumpkin and then inking around the border of the card stock. I then embossed the hexagons and border with some Holographic embossing powder from Ranger.  I added some gems from Honey Bee Stamps.

Finally, I added a sentiment from the Simon Says Stamp Just Because Word Mix 2 stamp and die set using some Tsukineko Delicata Celestial Copper ink from and embossed with some Holographic embossing powder from Ranger.



 This card, as well as many others, are destined for Scrapbook.com's Cards For Kindness drive, where they gather blank handmade cards t be sent out for others. These cards will be sent to hospitals, care facilities, deployed soldiers and other places that have need for cards. This way this card can be used to brighten someone else's day.  Check this out! It is a great way to send out your cards to others and make someone else's day!


Thanks for reading!
