CHF and Faber-Castell Day 1

Today is the first of a 4 day Blog Hop of Cornish Heritage Farms in partnership with Faber-Castell.

My card uses the CHF set called Ornamental Beauty (LL6018).  The background is Gingham (SL3179),

The inks are a new product from Faber-Castell, that look like lip balm sticks, and are called Gelato.  They are very creamy!  I sprayed with water to get the soft look.

Please come back and join us.  If you have F-C media of any kind, feel free to use them.  Link your cards HERE, being sure to use CHF images, and you could win some great stuff!  See you tomorrow.
