Glorious Tuesday morning blog friends!! I’m back at home after being gone for seven wonderful days. My son is starting a new college in a new town and I was helping him get set up. I called in the reinforcements too as you may have read in my last post. We had a wonderful time and everyone went home with a family tree tucked in their belongings – more work to do but we’re off to a very good start. I must say that I’m back in time to jump in on a fabulous, fabulous new JustRite Stampers Release called Bon Voyage with a marked shabby, vintage french feel!!
I pulled out lace and seam binding, as always. My center medallion is made from Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Squares followed by Spellbinders Postage Stamps. I followed up with Spellbinders Classic Square because I wanted the center to have a different colors. The next layer of the medallion is Spellbinders Orchard Harvest Tags and Accents followed by another Postage stamp. For my lace treatment, I started off with a layer of ruffled and distressed crepe paper and layered on top lace followed by seam binding.
The final touches were a Scor-Tape rose – I dropped two round pearls in the center. Then last but not least, I found these jewelry findings at Joann’s and thought they would be perfect for my pearl pick. It seemed like the perfect place for a small bow and a tiny hang tag made using Spellbinders Twisted Metal Tags and Accent’s smallest inside oval.

Beautiful card, and your stick pin “findings” are always so beautiful and different. Wish there was someplace around here that had something like that. I think I am going to see if I can find something on-line at Jo-Anns. Welcome back, hope your break was absolutely wonderful and refreshing as it could be! Blessings

Loving all the little touches you put on your cards….makes them so special!
LOL Eileen
As usual your are the best………BOY did I miss you while you were gone. You always think outside the box.
Outstanding!!! I especially love your Pearl Pick with that genius use of the jewelry finding! I have not been able to locate seam binding on a roll. Where to you get yours?
Très joli! It is much more than a card. I would like to frame it .So happy you are back. Many thanks
Oh I am so glad you are back. I have certainly missed you. I really look forward to seeing what you have created every day. This card is wonderful. I am glad you had some good family time.

Charlene
This is so beautiful!
C’est magnifique!
Love
Cynthia
A fabulous creations as always!!
I am very happy you took a week to enjoy with your family. Your cyber family seems to get all of your time. We love seeing your fantastic creations, but you need time with your actual family too.
Becca, this card is beautiful. I love the layers, details, embellishments and paper. By the way, are we going to see a Becca bit on the beautiful flower.
God bless,
Peggy Allen
Welcome home! I missed you, but was glad you were able to get away, help your son and enjoy yourself with family. You deserved a break.
I agree with Francine. This is not a card. King Louis XIV would have been pleased to frame and hang this in his palace at Versailles. You’ve out done yourself with this card and I specially like the pin treatment.
Again, welcome back, Becca. Happy to see you again.
Bravo on another masterpiece, Francie
What a lovely card. TFS.
WOW! Your cards are more a work of pure art than simply a pretty card! Simply gorgeous! How do you make the Scor-tape rose – it’s exquisite! Thank you for sharing your heart with us, it’s always more than just a sample.
debra
wow!!! what a gorgeous card!!! love it – my eye just keeps roaming all over discovering each little beautiful design detail. we have definitely missed you!
thank you.
Welcome back you were surely missed. But I hope the time away did you good…by the looks of your card…it was very good. Thanks for sharing.
Becca I just had to tell you a little story that made me chuckle. My husband walked in as I was looking at your card and he says look at the flower. You could make that….but how did she get the little circles in the center. Then he says, oh I get it, she just dropped them in. The next thing I read, you say you just dropped them in….maybe he is a crafter after all. It doesn’t sound too funny as I type this, but I thought it was cute!
Oh my gosh, I was just at JoAnn’s looking for some pearls to make the pins and I came across those cones, thought they had a vintage feel, but just didn’t know what I would use them for, so I passed them by. Guess I’ll have to go back now! LOL Love it!
You card is absolutely stunning!!! I LOVE your scor-tape rose!
Kindest regards,
Jennifer Ferrell
Welcome home and you were missed. I hope your son has a wonderful year at school. What a wonderful new stamp set and I really love your card.
Love, love, love this card. I recently made some ribbon flower embellishments so naturally I would love to know how to make the scor tape rose!
Stunning! I think this is a piece of Art – as your work usually is all about.
Just beautiful Becca? Did you feel the earthquake today? I’m in northern Maryland and we had to hold onto the walls at one point! Scary!
Mary
This is so wonderful. I just love your mix of colors. So glad you were able to spend such a nice time with your family. When that happens around here, I just feel like “my cup runneth over”. Must admit though , I missed the frequent e-mails from the “friend ” I never really met. God bless…… Denice
Just gorgeous Becca, I’ll call it a vintage beauty. I love the stick pin it looks very regal and really pops on your project. We missed you, we are glad you are back. As always Becca, TFS!!! :-D
Welcome home, Becca! It’s so good to have you back on your blog…and of course with an AMAZING card!
Thanks so much for all your inspiration, and I hope your son has a wonderful school year!
Barb G.

I love all the various elements and how you’ve pull them all together. The finding for the stick pin it brilliant!

Stunningly beautiful card! I am absolutely in love with this one! The colors are great and the new stamps are gorgeous. I also love your pearl picks. I think this one may be my all time favorite. So good to have you back!

Dear Becca
Your card as usual is stunning and just so full of color and beauty.
I’d love to see you do that rose..just beautiful.
Glad your able to help your son settle in..It can be a little scary at first so it’s nice to have mom around even if for a little while..
Good luck to him and take care and GB

I wish I could be inside your head for 1 day and that you would be creating on that day. You can come up with different and wonderful designs day after day. What fun you must be to have as a friend! A beautiful card as usual!!!!
So glad your back! It was a long week without my “beautification” fixes. Do you make the flowers and if so, will you please, please give us a tutorial???
Hugs!

Wow — breathtaking! Love the vintage/royal feel of your card.
I am really looking forward to the tutorial for the new “twist” on this flower. There is an obvious difference in this flower, tomorrow’s flower and the one in your current tutorial. Hope to see it soon!
Each card is so unique and so fabulous, I don’t know how you do it but I’m so glad you share your works of art with everyone.
hey Becca love the card and glad you are back. Will you be doing a score tape rose tutorial? can’t wait to see it.
I admit that I always have March Madness – so thank you, thank you for re-running the Scor-Tape Flower tutorial! You are so cool!
