This post is to focus on my "today and always" card.
My card uses the Eucalyptus Silhouette digital stamp
from the Eucalyptus digital stamp set by Beccy's Place,
one of our generous sponsors this fortnight.
~~~*~~~*~~~
Starting with my trusty design mat in Silhouette Studio, I opened the beautiful Eucalyptus Silhouette digital stamp from the Eucalyptus Digital Stamp Set by Beccy's Place, sized the image to fit on a 5" x 7" card front, added a digital sentiment (details below) then printed on smooth white cardstock, heat set and trimmed to size. I used a variety of Distress Inks and blending brushes to create a vibrant sunrise
... or is it a sunset?
I heat set the inked panel and adhered it to a card 5" x 7" top folding card base.
The sentiment was created using two different fonts,
details and links are listed in the ingredients below.

... I always think of my Grandma when I use this sentiment ...
she used to add a special message like
"S.W.A.L.K." (meaning Sealed With A Loving Kiss)
or
"with love, today and always"
to cards and envelopes ... such precious memories

I am going to enter my card in the following challenges:
All your sunset/sunrise cards are beautiful Tracy, you've done an awesome job with the background. The blending is so smooth and beautiful and makes a perfect contrast for the silhouette image. Love the different sentiments you added too.
