Hello!
Hope you're having a great week! We have a short week as Friday is a PA Day at school and we head off on our March Break Adventures! The boys decided that we would be heading to visit my parents for the March Break! No white, sandy beaches for us!!! We will be hanging in in white, cold snowbanks!!!
We have a great new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches this week courtesy of the incredibly creative Amy O'Neill. This one threw me a curve ball...let's just say the above card is card #3...the other two were disasters and I'm not in love with this one either! I am thinking I need to find my mojo!
I do love the new Decorative Dots Embossing Folder. It's super fun and adds a bit of randomness....something I am not good with! I used a flower stamp from the Secret Garden stamp set to create my layered flower! The middle and top layer of the flower are fussy cut but I actually find fussy cutting therapeutic!
The picture is a little dark but I used Midnight Muse (my absolute favourite blue) not black!
Supplies:
Cardstock: Midnight Muse, Very Vanilla
Stamps: Secret Garden, Itty Bitty Banners
Ink: Midnight Muse, Versamark
Other: Decorative Dots Embossing Folder, Bitty Banners Framelites, Secret Garden Framelits, Basic Pearls, White Embossing Powder, Dimensionals
Thanks for stopping by! Please head on over to the Freshly Made Sketches Blog and get started on your card for the week! The design team has come up with some amazing cards to get your creative juices flowing!
Have a great week!
Jen
So classy and elegant with just the right touch of pearls! I think I would be voting for sandy beaches instead of snow banks. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the cream and black colors on this!
ReplyDeleteWhoops! just saw that you used dark blue but it looks black!! still SO pretty!!
ReplyDeleteYour mojo is safe and sound just where it ought to be! This is classically elegant and I love it!
ReplyDeleteClassy and sophisticated, Jen! I love the layers on your flower, especially how you mixed it up with the white layer and pearls. Love it!
ReplyDeleteMidnight Muse and Very Vanilla is such a classy combination and you've created a classy card! There is nothing to not be happy with here, Jen! Enjoy your break!
ReplyDeleteI agree - this card has class written all over Jen! Not sure why you think you need to find your mojo - there is so much mojo happening here! LOVE the two-toned fussy cut flower!
ReplyDeleteThese colors looks so elegant together,Jen!! Pretty flower and i love the embossing!!
ReplyDeleteClassy, elegant, that really sums up this fabulous color scheme. Gorgeous card, Jen. I love that embossing folder, too. So "new" and fresh.
