Okay, about my card…before 5pm this afternoon I had no idea what I was gonna do.  This whipped up so quick that you HAVE to give it a try!!  Using my Scor-pal I scored in 3/4" increments to make a panel with squares.  In each square I stamped the sweet little flower from the Flourishes Thinking of You Stamp set using Tattered Rose Distress Ink and Peeled Paint Distress Ink.  The pearls I buy come in a set with tiny, medium and large pearls – well, I rarely use the large pearls they just seem, well, too large.  I unloaded those pearls here!!!!   The bunch of flowers and that beautiful sentiment from the Thinking of you Stamp set is stamped with the same distress inks however I marked in the green flowers with a green Tombow marker before huffing and stamping.   To show off the sentiment I used a scrapbooking tag I had in my stash and it was an excellent background to my Spellbinders Labels Four die.  Lastly, the swirl (gotta have a swirl!!) is from the Spellbinders Doodleparts set.  I finished off with crisp while satin ribbon.

    This card is an example of why I had to go out and buy a score-pal last week!…amazing…again…as usual. I would also like to ask the size. Is there anywhere that describes this for all of your beautiful work?
    M
    Is there anywhere in Canada that one can order all the beautiful things that you use? It’s too costly to order otherwise, and I really “need” all the “tools”!ReplyCancel
