A Fond Farewell

This is my last official week of designing for Cas-ual Fridays Stamps.  I have been so fortunate to be a part of this amazing company - I am truly thankful to Michele and our fabulous team!!

It is bittersweet that I am stepping down - we winter in Florida and I just don't take the time to stamp as much as I do at home where my permanent stamping area is located.  There is just too much to do with hubby!

I put together a watercolored thank you to mark the occasion using the leaves from Pretty Posies.

I stamped the leaves with Versamark ink onto white watercolour cardstock and then embossed them with white embossing powder.

Using my Zig Real Brush markers, I watercolored the leaves using various shades of green, pink, and yellow.

After it dried - you really have to wait for it to dry completely. completely. completely - I diecut a stitched rectangle from the watercolored leaves.  I popped that up onto a panel of Mint Julep Swiss Dot patterned paper which was adhered to my card base.

I fussy cut a flag  and popped it up onto the front and added a strip of the patterned paper.  I diecut the sentiment from white cardstock and adhered it to the flag.  I finished it off by adding a few Sparkly Clear Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh!

There is another Cas-ual Fridays release coming up soon - so stay tuned!!

I'm entering this card into the Simon Wednesday Challenge Blog which has a Totally Resistable theme this week!
