Good morning. Happy President's Day. Kierstynne is off from school today so I am going to use the time to do some laundry and get crafty.
My card for today uses a digi image from Saturated Canary. I used my new Neenah paper and Spectrum Noir pens. I also used some glitter gel pens and a white gel pen to do some highlights.
Isn't she cute? I enjoyed using this image and look forward to using some more from Saturated Canary. I started out making a card base with a chocolate brown from Colorbok. I made it 6x6. I matted the image on the same chocolate brown. I added a strip of lace and a strip of pearls (Jo Ann's) to the left side of the image. The sentiment is from Doodle Pantry and I matted that on pink card stock from Recollections. The DP is from SEI Chocolat. I used a sketch from Mojo Monday to make the card. I added two little pearls from Queen and Co. to the sentiment.
The flower is one that I just learned to make by watching a video on youtube. I took a 12 inch piece of box pleated trim, wound it around my fingers and used my hot glue gun to keep it in place. I punched out a 1 inch circle and added that to the bottom to help keep the rose in shape. I added a Paper Studio brad to the center of the rose. They are so easy to make and they look fantastic. My sweet husband took me to Hobby Lobby on Saturday and I found some rolls of box pleated ribbon for $1.74 on sale. I bought four different colors so I am going to be making some flowers. I think I am going to try different sizes.
Thank you for stopping in today. I pray y'all have a wonderful day. God bless.
