chevron thinking of you

I've been loving all the Chevron Chic Challenge in the Moxie Fab World cards and decided to make one for myself. This card is one of my favorite color combos- black, grey, yellow (and white) The grey you see on my card is actually the second generation of the black chevron (Beyond Borders by Mint Motif). Love that effect and I should use it more often.

The thinking of you sentiment was cut using a nestabilitie and my cuttlebug. This is embossed in black on vellum. It seemed a little plain, so I decided to incorporate the yellow from the chevron by sponging the color on the back of the circle. 

The flower (antique engraving- Hero Arts) was stamped in black and trimmed and mounted. Then I added some yellow glaze pen and I even colored over the black part of the image and it gave the black kind of black glaze as well. The 3 layers of glaze pen made the leaves kind of curl, so it really pops off the page. Oh, and I love the font of the thinking of you (CTMH- Card Chatter-Sympathy)
