Art Cards - Patterns, Quotes, Sayings

This card was made tonight for Art Cards Challenge - Patterns. The background pattern is a stamping of SU ink using a foam stamp that I carved. The white background paper has been patterned by using a Sizzix embossing machine and a Cuttlebug folder. The stamp was given to me by my darling granddaughter. I trimmed the sides a bit after posting this and added some Stickles. I am sending the card to Peewee, who has just gone into an assisted living facility.









Edit: Oops! It seems that the translation given to us as patterns was not correct! The theme is quotes or sayings. So I am adjusting my entry to meet the requirements with this quotation from John Wesley, founder of the Methodist Church.

    Your card looks wonderful. Love the colors and all the details. I think there's a little translation error, the challenge theme is Quotes.
