Fusion - Grateful


I'm grateful, thankful, and blessed by the many, many wonderful cards I received for my birthday ... thank you to all who kindly remembered me, and so beautifully!

I've done a true Fusion for this challenge ... I don't think any explanation is due... but a little close-up of the gold is:

Simply, masked half, then swiped the Delicata Gold right from the ink pad!


=]  Michele

Supplies:  PTI Linen card base, dies and stamps: Spruce and Sprigs, and Holiday words [swiped with Delicata Gold];  Mama Elephant's window.  Stamped with Distress Oxides:  Vintage Photo, and Fossilized Amber.

You are so very welcome, my friend...and so deserving of all the attention you received on your B-Day :)
Absolutely, positively GORGEOUS card, Michele! I love how you placed the window in the background and your beautiful autumn color palette is stunning! Very clever swiping on the die cut sentiment, too...I would love to CASE this card if you don't mind :)

Stunning, Michelle! The autumn colors are gorgeous and I love your sentiment! I'm one of those terrible friends who didn't send a card. Hate to admit I haven't sent any this year, except grandkids! I must get my life in order and do better next year. I was thinking of you though, as I do often! HUGS!!!!
