Proud in NY

The Clean and Simple challenge over on Split Coast this week was to show something about New York City - skyscrapers, broadway, nightlife etc .

I have always loved the Stature of Liberty and I have several stamps of her - so I knew just what part of NY I would have on my card. I stamped Miss Liberty and my sentiment with Ocean Tides ink directly on the Ocean Tides CS.

I used a gold Spica pen to highlight the flame, the star and the rim of her crown. It looks shimmery IRL, not so much in the picture! Then I just tied a ribbon around the top - clean and simple!
