For today's card I decided to make a love card for a really good friend of mine who lives far away - So I decided to make a missing you card by using the You Are Here stamp set and cutting out where I live using the Heart Stacklets and to this I attached the sentiment: "missing you" - kind of like sending her my love from where I am and telling her how much I miss her friendship!

I stamped the image of the US and then cut out the midwest where I live with the Heart Stacklets and then created a layer of mats and added some white gel faux stitching around the edges.
I loved coloring in all the states in different shades of gray and then adding a pop of pink and a heart! I added a little bit of bling on the corner and then rounded all the edges before adhering everything down - I love how this turned out and I love that I had time to fiddle and play around with this idea that I have had for awhile! Here is another look at my card:
Card Ingredients:Inks: Memento Tuxedo Black and Love Letter inks
