Hello and welcome
Today’s project features Hero Arts products I’ve had in my stash for years.
HA Konnichiwa Lantern images were gold heat embossed and fussy cut.
Two panels of red cardstock were cut and glued together to make a piece 35cm long, scored and folded to make the front and back 12.5 cm wide.

This was randomly stamped with the lanterns using VersMark Ink.
A black circle was die cut and splattered with gold ink, along with the piece on the back panel to hold the gift card. The medallion image from the stamp set was heat embossed and added to the front. (So Lucky to have a Friend like You)

The centre panel had the PB – Special Thoughts Sentiment was gold heat embossed.
The front circle was added and the lanterns added with raised tape along with the ‘best wishes’ sentiment from the stamp set.
The card holder panel was added to the back and strips of gold and black card was added at each end for interest.
Thanks so much for taking the time to visit. I love to read your comments.
Stay safe in these difficult times and have a good day
Cheers
Helen
