Hi, guys! Hope your day is going well. Today I am sharing a card I made for my husband's friend Mike. When my hubby and I got married, he had two best men. Mike was one of them. I enjoy making cards for Mike, as he always seems to enjoy receiving them. He is very artistic and so I am touched when I hear how he enjoys them.
Supplies:
Stamps: Hero Arts
Paper: Stampin' Up
Ink: Distress Inks
Misc.: Ribbon, Perfect Pearls (Metalics)
For this card, I used various colors of distress inks and then used quite a few metallic Perfect Pearl Mists. It really gave it a cool shine and metallic look. By using the mist with the distress inks, I was able to get them to blend nicely together.
Here's wishing Mike all the best this year! We consider him a gift each and every day!
Until next time!
