After recovering from family matters I had to focus on my health. It took a while (longer than expected) but now it is under control and my whoop-dee-dooo attitude has returned just in time to for me to re-engage myself by joining a few challenges.
Here is the card that I am entering. Hope you like it.
I used three different design papers from Maja Design and Bazzil to create the layout. My embellishments include flowers from Wild Orchid and Recollections.
The lace, bling and cheese-cloth I found in my stash. I used lace although I have equal amounts of lace and ribbon. I mostly use lace simply because I haven't mastered the tying of bows and I think when you use ribbon you have to add a bow.
My friends say I do okay with bows but until my bows resemble those made by Becca Feeken, I will continue to use lace as often as I can but that's not to say that I won't tie a bow from time to time or use ribbon on my projects.
On the inside I used different leftover scraps and a couple of sheets from the same Maja paper pad. I added a corner flourish and used a Hero Arts stamp for my sentiment.
The card size is 6 x 6 and my image was colored with the following copic markers.
E00, 11, 23, W0, 00, 01, 03, 04, 05, 07, BV000, 00, 01, 02, BG90. BG93, and V28.
