I have a card to share with ya... I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Friendship Jar, and Fillers Sets.. from PTI... NOT that I have used them much.. but oh the ideas I have!! :) My Mom had to have surgery on both knees (LOVE YOU MOM!) and the kiddos and I went to visit her and take her to lunch... I had to give her a card with her flowers... I knew what I wanted to do.. those FABULOUS tulips in the Spring Set!! So this is what I came up with.. it isnt overly embellished... but sometimes I think the card just stands alone.. and to me those tulips just stand alone.. in all their beauty... (Ok I LOVE tulips that could be why I say those things! HA HA!)
My card.. and a few challenges I am entering it in!! :) Used my copics and spicas to color it, distressed edges.. stitching..and viola all done!

ReplyDeleteAs the saying goes, "Less is more." Although, I wouldn't exactly classify this card as less. The tulips are gorgeous, the coloring impressive. And the stitched border adds just the right touch. I do need to get my machine out.
ReplyDeleteHave fun on your road trip. Hope your mom is already on the mend.
Really lovely, Bethie! The tulips are colored soooo well, and your ribbon & button detail is the perfect touch!
