Yaaaah, I finally had a chance to make something and post it! We've been so busy with vacations and stuff, I'm really missing my scrap room! So here's a card for my daughter who just moved back overseas for her hubby's hockey season. Her birthday is tomorrow and she loves pink and brown and BLING. The papers are Smitten by K&Co, and they are the ultimate girly papers! All pink and heart, and swirls, and flowers and glitter--totally yummy! I also used some hot pink mica paper that has sparkly specks in it. Anyhow, I used this girl image from A Child's Year cartridge cut at 2 1/2", then shadowed. That's on layers of nestabilities cuts. This card is heavy--12 layers thick from the card stock base to the pink girl! The pretty flower is also from K&Co and has been sitting around for the past year--isn't it just a perfect match? I used paper scraps for the inside and used A child's year for the grass/flower cut as well. What a cool effect looking like a silhouette against the rising heart "sun". Love these papers--did I already say that? The little wheel barrow and flowers were cut from Walk In My Garden. Now I have to email this card to my daughter (well, after I sign it) since I don't have an address for her, so I hope she sees the love I made it with. And now I have to finish packing to take some grandkids camping for a few days. Thanks for taking a peek!
