Happy Thursday! Today is my Mum's birthday. She is crafty too, so I bought her a crafty gift, and made her set of mongram cards which I will show you next week, and I made her a card. Here is what I came up with:
Isn't it pretty? 2 weeks ago - my fellow Cricut Cardz Design Team member Nicole, made THIS beautiful card. I thought it was gorgeous, so I decided to make my own take on it. I cut the top layer at 4 x 5.25 on my Gypsy girl. I welded a 1.8 inch circle to the center of it. I then cut out 2 more circles for the other two flowers to sit on. The tulips are cut from Give a Hoot. The sentiment is from TPC Studios Greeting set. The ribbon is from Michaels and the paper is a mish mash of Stampin Up, Recollections and stuff from my scrap box.
You can see here how I pop-dotted each if the layers up. I like the dimension it gives the "white on white" look of the card. I hope Mum likes it :)
A challenge or two for my card:
Bitten by the Bug - in the garden
Fab'n'Funky - celebrations
Celebrate the Occasion - anything goes
Party Time Tuesdays - anything goes
Shopping Our Stash - floral
Robyn's Fetish - birthday card with sentiment
Sentimental Sundays - pocket full of posies
Cooking With Cricut - may flowers
A la prochaine...
