Today I want to share my Thinking of You Parisian Notes card. I couldn’t wait to use this *NEW* Parisian Notes Stamp Set.

I did a little bit of “stamp surgery” with the sentiment in order to stack it and have it fit in the space I had on the card. Additionally, I stamped a portion of the image on Mulberry Cardstock so that I could then fussy cut out the flowers. It adds a nice pop of color to the card. Finally, I did some sanding around the edging of the card. The technique fits with the antiqued look of the stamped image. And it always works so well with our white core cardstock.
