CASual Fridays #88


The current challenge at CASual Fridays is Love Letters--use letters creatively 
in your CAS project. Here's my card.


I found a very old set of alpha stamps by 7 Gypsies that Kristina Werner 
enabled me to get several years ago. They're huge. And did I mention old?
I had to pry them off of the acetate sheet.
And this is the first time that they've touched ink.


I did some ombre inking with a technique that we learned in
Clean and Simple Card Making 2 then added some ink splatters and a bow.
Lastly, I rounded off just the right corner to mimic the roundness of the O.

Have a great week and thanks, always, for stopping by!

  6. LOVE your ombre letters!! What a great feeling that must have been to pry your letters off knowing: 1) you didn't just rip them (which I've done on old sets that have never seen the light of day) and 2) you're finally using them!
