I painted the white CS with Beige Creative Inspirations Paint. I ran it through the Cuttlebug using Regal Flourishes (Tim Holtz). I found this sweet image by Crafty Secrets (Birds and Blossoms) and thought immediately of my Mother- I need to send her a card-perfect! I added the Metallic weave ribbon (Martha Stewart) in Gold and Camelia Pink.
I spent a few days at my parents home in No. Kentucky, then headed to OSU in Columbus to see my daughter- it was such a great visit. I stopped at Marco’s Paper on the way back home- delightful treat! Back to the real world now!
Challenges:
Totally Gorjuss-Sparkle (background)
Keep it CAS-Take a BOW
Midnight Madness- Simple Sketch
Creative Cottage-Embossing
Paper Romance-Pleated ribbon
