January Choices With the Card Chain Challenge Group

 Choices, Choices, Choices.

Before I show you my card, I wanted you to see the choices I had to choose from.  I love these challenges - always some snail mail for me at least once a month - pretty snail mail too!

Now for my card for my partner Helen G. in Ohio, USA!

I had a lot of fun with this card.  I first stamped the Julie Nutting image, die-cut with my slimline dies and colored the image in.  I like to know the surface I'm working with so that's why I usually die-cut my images before I color them.  I decided to stamp over the panel with some script and had found a bubble stencil that I knew I had to use.  I really like the effect of both stamping and stenciling.  

I had to stencil the envelope too!  LOL

Supplies:
Julie Nutting stamp from 2014
Hero Arts cling stamp - unsure of name of the stamp
Magenta Bubbles stencil
Kat Scrappiness Embossed Edge Nesting Slimline Dies
Sizzix friend die set
Copic markers
Distress ink Broken China
Vagabond die cut machine

what a great card Arlene. It's lovely. I have a Julie Nutting girl and they are prefect for tall/slimline cards
