Hugs ... for your friendship Flowers and bling 7x5" white card -  Day 169 of my 365 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! Today's card for my 365 day challenge has been made using Chameleon pencils and a Stamps By Me die along with a Hug.. for your friendship stamps.

I used some alcohol markers to highlight some of the hearts to add a bit of colour to the monochrome effect (red, yellow and orange). I then stuck the smaller one on top of the larger one and glued that to the centre of the DL Kraft card. I also cut out the LOVE sentiment (from Tonic Studios) twice, once in white card, the other in red and slightly offset that one on top of the white one. I then glued it to the right hand bot...
