Card Chain Challenge swap



Last month I decided to re-join the girls at the Card Chain Challenge - to make and send a card to someone in a far off lands.... this card went to Marga in Spain.
I used the sketch as a guide to my layout, stamped, watercoloured and fussy cut my coffee and flowers image and used a smooched Distress Ink background with matching card strips behind the image.  To finish the card I added a stamped 'friends' sentiment on a stitched die cut label. 
I am also posting to Stamplorations Never Ending challenge as I used the Coffee and Dog Roses stamp.  Thanks for visiting, I really appreciate it, happy card making.
