Hope Anchors The Soul

April2-1
 
I was very excited to receive happy mail from Neat and Tangled stamps yesterday because I wanted to use this stamp especially for today, National Autism Awareness Day! This card is something quite different from my usual card making style, but I wanted to give the water/color distressing technique a try. I also took a picture of my card at a different angle then my usual "front on" perspective. What do ya think?
 
To create this card I used the Neat And Tangled stamp "Hope Anchors".  What a wonderful sentiment, and perfect for today. I used some of my beloved Pink Paislee Mistables paper, and sponged it with SU ink. I heat embossed the sentiment using Stampin Up Night of Navy embossing powder.  I added lines of gold machine stitching, and gold sequins also from Neat and Tangled!
 
I hope you like my card and I'm glad you stopped by!
