August 9, 2016 Beautiful Bottles

When I saw this beautiful digi set from MHK Designs Beautiful Bottles I knew I had to add it to my collection as well as some very pretty versatile papers Positively Purple .  This new to me card design if my new favorite style - so fun to work with and you can add to or leave very simple.  I made my first one for sweet great grandsons BD last week and I thought this would work perfectly for a chemo buddy that is having some real challenges during her chemo. Love the sentiment on the front, I printed out the bottle, colored with prisma pencils then glued it on another scrap piece of cs and cut both of them out for stability.  I also wanted the word faith so I have a die cut and I cut 3 using my base cs, glued them together, smooshed them with my versamark pad and dipped in clear embossing powder, looks like a beautiful chip board embellishment.l probably need extra postage on this envelope when I mail it.
