Peace

My last post for today is a card I made for Paper Players Challenge #218.  It's a Clean & Simple challenge using silver or gold.  This is a new challenge for me, recommended by a blogging friend.  I've been dying to ink up this new Hero Arts stamp I picked up a couple of weeks ago so I thought it would look fantastic in silver.  I stamped in silver ink (the background & trees), then heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  The sentiment is a Sizzix/Tim Holtz die cut that was also embossed with UTEE for thickness.  I'm practicing my CAS style so I'm hoping this card meets the challenge.  Thanks so much for stopping by ~ have a great week!
