It's 'WORD' Week at Just Us Girls

Elizabeth is Hosting again this week for

our Word Week at Just Us Girls 

and picked that one word that can lift

anyone's spirits in such a simple way.

Of course an Encouragement card can do the trick!

I went with a light hearted way with the 

WORD - ENCOURAGEMENT.

STAMPloratons has a bunch of 

great encouragement word stamps and

while I was flipping through them

I came across the one I used here

and a few others, not sure at that stage

where this card was heading.

My background is from my bits box. 

You never know what didn't work out

at the time comes in handy for times like this.

Added a flicker or more white paint then

heat embossed the feather in white.

Looking rather lonely I decided to heat emboss

a seconed one on vellum and used the die

that comes with the 

Feathery Set from STAMPlorations.

Inked the appropriate sentiment in black

and decided to tear around the edges

giving it a little left.

Added a small frame to blend in with the background

and adhered to white base.

Pop over and check out what our Guest Laurel

and the Team created as an

Encouragement card to show they care.
