Card For a Friend

 Hi everyone and happy Sunday :)

Just a quick post today, to share a "Thank You" card for a friend, that was created by following the sketch from this weeks CAS(E) this Sketch! challenge:

I don't know why, but I went a little crazy with rhinestones *lol* ... maybe because it is so grey and ugly outside, that I thought a little *bling* on my card will brighten my day ;-)

Because I embellished the centre of the flower with lots of rhinestones, you may not be aware of the two-tone stamping I did on the flower at first sight. Therefore I thought I'd share a close-up of the flower where you -maybe- can see it. I stamped the flower in Radiant Neon Electric Blue + Electric Geen (see instructions below).

You will find the detailed instructions and a list of supplies below this post in the grey boxes.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope to see you here on my blog again, soon :)
