Special Place in My Heart

YOU

 

FS895 - This week's incredibly talented featured stamper Kathy, is better known around here as jkelliot. I found this INSPIRATION.

Rather than the large U, I die cut the large YOU letters from spellbinders and used some green and blue floss that I am trying to use up from my craft table.

I then die cut the green shadow layer and popped the letters up on dimensionals.

The sentiment is heat embossed and I finished with several flowers from my stash and Nuvo Drops.
