I just thought that I would share this 'thank you' card that I made earlier in the year. Again, it is a little bit different to my usual style, but I wanted to experiment with torn vellum as it gives such an interesting effect.
The flower silhouette is a free digital stamp, but I can't re-find the site to give the link. If I do find it I will edit this post and add it. The other stamps are all old favourites from Hero Arts.
Hopefully this card has a slightly masculine feel as it was a 'thank you' for a male friend for his Christmas gifts to myself and my hubby.
... and if you want to see a Masterclass in torn vellum take a peek over at Jill's fabulous blog 'Inspired by...' to see Jill and Carole in action!
Happy crafting everyone!

Hi Bud..
This is terrific...I love the distressed feel and the image is fab on the script with the added subtle gem's...I love it...
Well done you...
How lucky were we to bump into each other today, I did wonder last night if I might have....
I have agreed to join SC challenge full time, I emailed Jane and expressed my worry of a card a week and she very kindly said not to worry and make what I can, so I will be doing one a fortnight...
enjoy the rest of the weekend....

I like this! Very nice!
such a beautiful card! love the distress you did in the background and the torn vellum is the perfect touch!
Beautiful look with the vellum! I don't ever work with vellum but it's probably high time I try it, looks great! And I love that shade of green against the black silhouette!
Definitely masculine! I like the little polka dots down at the bottom - so much detail!
