Blossoms and Blessings


I think this card turned out almost "perfect" for my standards that is!!! I have had this set since the first week the new inspiration book was out and really struggled with ideas until I sat down with white cs and stamp in hand. I used another technique from Technique Junkie newsletter (I think this one was their best so far). I used a piece of lace on white cs, sprayed it with Tattered Wings Glimmer Mist - Bubble Gum Pink. It was the perfect bg for this image. I used a nestie to cut out my image and saying and colored it with water color shimmers - remember we used to carry them and me being one who doesn't let go of much kept them around and it worked perfect for this. A gold satin bow and card complete. Let me know what you think.
