Always Be My Friend

Hi!  It's Diana here today to share a card on friendship.  What would we do in life without our friends - especially long time friends who's seen a lot in our lives?   The set Always Be My Friend has some wonderful sentiments to express just that.  I wanted a more aged look to go with my sentiment.  First I stamped in black ink onto white Neenah card stock and then place my a standard circle die over it.  After die-cutting and embossing, I used pumice stone and antique linen distress inks to sponge the edges while it was still in the die.

Popped up behind that panel is a die cut of the largest of the Spellbinders Splendid Circles die out of kraft card stock.  The base layer is embossed using Darise damask embossing folder and the corners are also sponged using the pumice stone and antique linen distress inks.  Finally I added a bold striped ribbon and some flowers in the corner for a pop of color.
