Hope....Faith

Here is my entry for the Fantabulous Cricut challenge for this week.  It is to make a card to support your cause.  I chose this design because I thought it could be used not only for "cause awareness," but also for sympathy or encouragement.  Sometimes when you need a card for those less than happy times, it is hard to come up with an idea.

I used Home Decor (one of my favorites) for the dragonfly and the word HOPE.  FAITH was made using Plantin Schoolbook.  I welded the letters on "shadow" in Design Studio for the first cut, then again regularly, and adhered together.  The background paper was outlined and the front card edge was cut using a Fiskars punch.  TFL!

    Your card shows such beautiful depth to it from the inking and shadowing, it turned out very nice!
