Stronger Together

Stronger Together…what an awesome stamp set!  I love the fonts, the sentiments and the cause!  All proceeds from Stronger Together sales will be donated to the Red Cross to help with disaster relief.  I can see this stamp set having a permanent home on my stamping table for some time to come! In case you have missed it, here is a look at the full set-

My card is created with all new products from the Holiday Expressions Idea Book & Catalog!  I based my card on the sketch challenge at Cheerful Sketches.

I love adding layers on my cards, so this was the perfect sketch for me!  I finished out the inside of my card with another sentiment from the set.

Design Tip-My sentiments are inked in Cocoa pigment ink and then clear embossed.  I prefer to ink my stamps in color and then clear emboss.  I have a ton of colors to choose from and it is much easier to get a clean image and not have to worry about stray embossing powders.

I die cut my leaves from pattern paper and cardstock.  The colors coordinate perfectly, the beauty of Close To My Heart products!
