Hi Again Stampers!
I wanted to create a card using one of the
soon to be retired stamp sets and In-Colors and this week's CCMC197 Create with Connieand Mary Color Challenge was perfect! If you have not done so already, check out the Design Team samples as well as the other entries- gorgeous!
Friends Never Fade will only be available
until the end of May and I love the floral scroll and sentiment on the main floral
stamp (fyi-Concord Crush will also be retiring along with the In-Colors for 2010-2012).
This card is fairly simple and combines quite a few techniques- heat embossing, dry
embossing, crimping, rolled flowers and of course, pearls :-) I will have to come back and post more
details tomorrow since it is so late…

Thanks again for
visiting! I hope you like this card and
if you have the time let me know- will you be sad to see Friends Never Fade
retire?
Have a great week stamping- God
Bless!
So sad to see this stamp set retiring. Great job with the color challenge, especially like the embossed layer! Thanks for playing CCMC!
