Annie’s Ink-Lings
I've dreamed of visiting Venice, but the reality is that the closest I'll ever get is with the Venice background stamp I've used for my Lady in Red card. I love how her bright red dress and umbrella just pop on that background. I saw a similar card on Pinterest and decided that this was exactly what I needed to make for one of my friends at church who was having a health issue. She was a bit discouraged and I thought perhaps this would be an encouragement to her that better days were to come. This is a clean and simple card with just a bit of fussy cutting. The design can be used for an assortment of occasions just by changing the sentiment. So take a look and then give it a go.
