A dear friend and P.E.O. sister fell and broke a shoulder last week. Two challenges inspired my card of encouragement to her and they are linked below.
I embossed the back panels of bamboo paper with a Gina K Designs folder and rubbed it with a combination of speckled egg and faded jeans Distress Oxide to achieve a color similar to the challenge. For the small square I used an emboss/cut folder from SSS that was part of a kit last year with Desert Sand paper and I rubbed the raised portion with Distress Oxide as well. The sentiment is Gina K stamped in faded jeans and adhered to the back of the square.
