Card For Stacie's Aunt

Hi again everyone!
It's still cold with snow on the ground so I spent a few hours playing in my favourite room! I stumbled across a blog last night and will link it to this post when I find it again. The blog owner is Stacie and her Aunt has been diagnosed with breast cancer and having her mastectomy soon. She was hoping to have people send cards to her address and she will bundle them up for her Aunt to make her day after her surgery. Being new to all of this, this will be the first card I've made to send to someone from the net be it Blogspot or SplitCoast.
I started off with Stampin' Up! glossy cardstock and Ranger Alcohol Inks. The ink colours used were Rasperry, Lemonade, Sunshine Yellow and Pearl. The stamp is from Hero Arts - Silhouettes and stamped with black Brilliance ink and then embossed with Clear Kaleidoscope. I thought it was just clear until after I put the heat gun down. Actually, I'm impressed with how it turned out and wish you could see the lovely look that doesn't show in this photo! The sentiment is also embossed and from Stampin' Up! Ribbon is circa 1990 from my stash. Papers are all unknown.
Thanks for looking and I'll post the link to Stacie as soon as she gets back to me via e-mail.

I finally have it!!  Stacies Blog is http://craft-princess.blogspot.com/
