Good morning...... hope you are keeping well!!
Today I have a card to show you using one of Stempleglede's 'Just A Note' stamps as my focal point...... I made it for my Dad and his new wife who are just celebrating their first wedding anniversary together..... and rather than just say 'Happy Anniversary' I thought I'd go with this lovely quote instead. I followed the lovely sketch over at
The Sweet Stop and I hope you can still make out the layout..... I'm not very good at sticking to the original design with a sketch but i think I did okay here, lol!I
I made the flower using the Tim Holtz Tattered Floral Sizzix die and added Doo Hickey leaves. Everything has been distressed and stained to give a vintage feel. I think the papers are DCWV and I used one of the sheets to create my butterfly embellishments.
I'm also entering the following challenges:
Let's Ink It Up - Focal Sentiment and 3D Flower
Sentimental Sundays - Handmade Flowers
Addicted To Stamps - Pink and Brown
Double Dutch - Vintage
Thanks so much for stopping by today and take care ;o)
TTFN and TFL, hugs Tara xxx
