Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks

Today I am participating in Kylie Bertucci's Monthly International Blog Highlights.  The theme is Thank You.  I created this card with a specific friend in mind.  She believes in me and is quick cheer me on.  She shares her real life experiences with me.  She is one of the kindest women I have ever met.  There are many reasons to send a thank you card and in this case I will be letting her know how much I appreciate her kind words and support.

We have a new mini catalog going live on Sept. 6th in the US, and my card uses 2 of the products from that new catalog.  The Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks #162331 and the So Sincere Stamp set #162283.  Because they haven't gone live yet, I am not able to create a link for these items yet.  

I love getting inky with blending brushes and the new Abundant Beauty decorative masks really allow me make some beautiful designs.   Besides the autumn leave, there are snowflakes, houndstooth and a spectacular sunflower!!  These are a must for everyones tool box!  Just so beautiful and full of options!
