Today is the Design Divas Facebook Group Blog Hop. I feel very blessed to be a part of this extremely talented group of ladies. The theme of the blog hop is Oldies but Goodies utilizing stamps, papers, embellishments, etc. that are at least 6 months old to make a card or project. The blog hop starts here if you want to start at the beginning. If you are following along you should have come from the Carolyn’s blog, Kirei Na Kami. Isn’t her stuff amazing?!?!?
For my card I used With Sympathy, it is so sad how this stamp set found its way to the forgotten list. I forgot how amazing it is. I stamped the swirl image using Frayed Burlap distress ink, then stamped the flowers in Chipped Sapphire distress ink. I then randomly added some adhesive pearls and stamped the sentiment from Damask Designs in Chipped Sapphire ink. To finish off the card, I tied some satin ribbon around the Fine Linen card base. It matches perfectly…love that!
For the inside, I cut a piece of vintage cream cardstock slightly smaller than the card size and rounded the edges. I stamped the sentiment from Birthday Basics in Frayed Burlap and the flourishes from Vintage Labels in Chipped Sapphire.
Thanks for stopping by my blog. Your next stop on the blog hop is Julie Buhler’s blog, Paper Pleasing Ideas. Julie’s stuff is incredible, she totally inspires me!
