I have used Hero Arts Gracious Lady, and I am sorry to say that this lovely lady has been neglected lately due to new additions - I am really going to make an effort to use ALL of my stamps. She was stamped onto white card and I sponged a little Antique Linen DI around the edges. Decided to mat her on the same red paper used for her coat and hat, but something was missing, so added another layer of black - matches with the black Hero Arts stamped sentiment!
I am also entering this card in Crafty Ribbons - CAS
That's it for now, and thanks for all the lovely comments re DD and the Celebration Candy
