Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge -- A Good Read -- Take Two

I have another card to share that I made using the current
goodhousekeeping.com

Here's my card, using MFT's Our Story:


I started by stamping the stack of books (with a mask) and sentiment from Our Story onto my 
watercolour paper in versafine onyx black ink and heat embossing them in clear.
I coloured them in using my Zig Clean Colour Real Brush Markers and a water brush.



I trimmed out the side of my panel and layered it over a piece of Bazzill cardstock,
on which I stamped more books repeatedly, again using the mask.

Remember, there's still time to play along with this
 Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge.
