Here is my card:
My card base and mats are SU soft Sky and the patterned papers are from my older stash. I think it is My Mind's Eye Six by Six Dwell, but I couldn't lay hands on the pad right now. My sweet image is Lots of Love from Elisabeth Bell's Digital Collection. Elisabeth created this adorable image in honor of the birthday of Digi Bells DT co-leader, Linda . I printed it on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored it with my Copics. I added some Summer Flower Soft that I've had forever and never used, to the bouquet. I added in the grass with Prismacolor Pencils. I framed the image first with a doily cut from Soft Sky with my Cheery Lynn French Pastry die and then with a paper doily that I salvaged from a pastry tray in a restaurant ages ago. I always keep these doilies in my stash just in case! The sentiment is from Create With TLC. A triple-loop satin bow, a single Wild Orchid Crafts rose and three heart gems that I also found in my stash finished my card.
Here is a close-up of the image:
Thanks for stopping by again! I promise this is it for awhile! I'm entering my card in the following challenges:
Elphine House #35 (paper doilies)
Sketch Saturday #241 (sketch)
Paper Crafting Journey (anything goes)
Corrosive Challenge #165 (out with the old; I used old paper, a salvaged doily, and the heart gems)
Forever Friends Fortnightly #53 (favorite embellishments; mine are ribbon, flowers and gems)
Have a fantastic Friday and weekend and I will see you soon!
Love this sweet image, Carla. It tugs at a mother's heart. How wonderful that you can use your restaurant doily. Great idea to save them.
