Purple Blessings

Today's card relies heavily on the Infinity Heart Dies from Hero Arts. These may be my favorite dies because they are so very basic and therefore incredibly versatile.


After stamping a large Hero Arts shadow stamp with Hero Arts purple ombre ink, I cut the hearts and arranged them on the card. The two smaller hearts are popped on dimensionals, and one end of the banner is popped as well. The results were too plain, so I colored some clear heart rhinestones in three sizes with purple Sharpie and added them. Yay!

Let's all say it together: Bling makes everything BETTER!




This card is destined for an acquaintance whose favorite color is, hands down, PURPLE.

And now for a glimpse of what my weekend involved.

My elder son Nick is seated on the left with the black undershirt.
He played Benny Van Buren, the team manager of the Washington Senators.
What a great production of Damn Yankees
by Springboro High School!

Very little stamping, but this has been a Proud Mom Weekend.

Mercy, grace, peace, and love,
Susan
