THanKs

I love these text stamps by Heidi Swapp, they're so quirky that you don't need much else for a nice card. In fact, they scream for attention, so cluttering the design with too many details just doesn't seem to work.

I first stamped the greeting using ink pads from Colorbox Cat's Eye Queues Rainbow Sherbet and Baby's breath plus Fluid Chalk Wisteria. Then I stamped the greeting with Versafine Onyx Black on top of the earlier texts. I attached a pink flower brad to bring a bit of 3D element to the card and to enhance the pink text which was least visible. I inked the edges with wisteria ink, backed the image with patterned paper and attached onto a card blank, leaving rather wide white edges.
