Well onto my card for the blog blitz…

This is one of the amazing new Open Studio stamps called Monterey Sunrise (CS2205J). The background was blended with Memento Inks from Imagine Crafts.
The sentiment was created with the new clear stamp set called Words to Live By.

To finish off the inside of the card, I continued with the blending of the Memento Inks and stamp just a portion of the Monterey Sunrise.
The small Flock of Doves die was cut in black and adhered.

Thank you for joining us this week for the Blog Blitz, and I guarantee you're going to be inspired with the amazing new stamps, dies and stencils and with the awesome creations from the Design Team.
