Hello Note Card

Here's a simple little note card that I may just use for an extra project this Wednesday at the Mothers Class.

First, I stamped the flower in India Ink black and colored it with a watercolor brush using Wild Honey and Fired Brick Distress Inks.  Using an acrylic ruler and a black SU marker, I drew two boxes around the flower.  I darkened the inside box for contrast around the petals, then drew wavy lines and dots in the "frame" for added interest.  (Click on photo for a closer view.)

Next, I wrote the "hello" free hand and embellished the flower center with yellow Stickles.

Finally, I cut off some of the bottom to make the card a square and rounded the corners.  I plan to show the class how to alter a large envelope to accommodate a smaller card as shown HERE.
