Hello, Kraftie Friends!!!

I haven't used my blending tool for a while, so decided to make this card for a Class I taught last Saturday:

I blended 2 colors on a stamped panel (A Grateful Heart - CTMH), colored the image with alcohol-based markers and adhered it on card.
Then, I added some washi tape.
