Thinking of You

Very last minute entry for the tone-on-tone challenge at A Blog Named Hero.  I used Distress Ink victorian velvet to color my paper, to stamp the flowers & to make the splatters.  I used the layout at Freshly Made Sketches.  The sentiment is from HA Thinking of You Messages & the flowers & die cuts are HA Bold Pop Designs. I used black Pico Embellisher for the dots in the flower centers.  I'm also entering CropStop.

I don't follow auto racing except for the Indy 500. My folks were both from Indianapolis, I was born there & my grandfather worked at the track as a young man, so it's always special to me.  Quite the race this year with an American rookie winning just before running out of gas--so fun! Enjoy the rest of your weekend & thanks so much for taking time to stop by my blog.

    What a pretty card. Monochromatic cards are so interesting to look at I think. I love the depth you've created using these shades of pink. Thanks for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches!

    Victorian Velvet...I had no idea how beautiful this is, especially the deeper accent shades on your flowers! Another 'in awe' creation...

    Tone on tone, I love it. Perfect name for the color-Victorian Velvet because it does have such an old world feel to it.
