Simon Says Stamp - SUMMER BOUQUET Thank You Card

Hello Lovelies! I adore ink and don't use my mediums as often as I should. So on today's card, we are going for a striking, but delicate look with Crackle Paste through the new Summer Bouquet Stencil.

Using Opaque Crackle Paste with this elegant stencil creates an image that somehow reminds me of lace.

I originally intended to use my Distress Sprays over the Crackle, but ended loving the look of it on its own so much that I could not bear to change it with color.

Let's take a look at the key supplies.
