A 'pay it forward' thank you card

 Along with my latest purchase, the dear shop owner gifted me with some 12x12 journaling cards pages.

I felt so grateful for this lovely gift, and decided to 'pay it forward'. The shop owner operates a 'happy cards' donation to a hospital. The cards can be with any sentiment, and they'll be given to both patients and staff. Isn't it just a lovely thing to do?

For the first card, I stamped some leaves in dark bluish gray (weathered wood distress oxied ink), and other with dried marigold distress oxide. I then stamped tiny leaves here and there, with aged mahogany distress ink, and used the same ink for the sentiment (Thanks in Hebrew).

I then distressed the edges with this redish ink and placed the panel on a white basis.

Challenges:

Sunday Stamps - use at least 3 colors from the inspiration photo:

I used orange, apricot, dark red and dark bluish gray.

Retro Rubber Challenge #216 - tic tac toe:

I used the middle vertical row - patterned paper, leaves (as my choise) and circles. I have the sentiment stamp I think for more than 5 years, and the leaves stamps are about 2 years old.
