Create With TLC Blog Hop

Good morning!  The time we've all been waiting for is finally here!  It's time to hop with Create With TLC!   Today, Paulette from Create with TLC is introducing her new design team and as always, that means a fun blog hop filled with fabulous creations to inspire you! Some of the alumni DT members are also participating in today's hop!  The theme for the hop is "Words - Timeless and Beautiful".  Paulette has generously provided gorgeous freebies for you to pick up at every stop on the hop.  If you arrived here from Marsha's wonderful blog, you are in the right place.  If not, you'll want to head back to the Create With TLC blog and start the hop from there so you don't miss any of the team's gorgeous creations or the fantastic freebies!

Here is the beautiful image I got to create with:
To download it for yourself, click on the image, then right click and choose "Save as..." and save it to your computer.

Here is my card with the image:


I started with a card base of SU Tempting Turquoise and layered with a beautiful digi paper that Paulette shared as a freebie on her blog awhile back.  It is called Morning Glory.  I thought it worked perfectly with the wonderful image.  I printed the image onto Copic X-Press It Blending Card and colored it with my Copic markers.  I added some Stickles to the butterflies and flowers for a bit of sparkle.  I added a triple-loop wrinkled ribbon bow and a fabric flower I created from a scrap of a Webster's Pages Bloomer.  A few turquoise gems finished my card.

Thanks for hopping by!  From here, your next stop is Lisa Lynn's blog.  I know she has something amazing to share with you!   Enjoy the rest of the hop!

If you get lost along the way, here is the whole hop list to get you back on track:


Have a great day and see you soon!
