Oh my gosh, what a beautiful day we are going to have here today! I need to get outside and enjoy it!!! Before I go do just that (yes, I get to mow the lawn AGAIN!!), I want to post my card for Mothers and Daughters Creations design team challenge!! This card is also based on today's limited supply challenge over at SCS. The challenge was to use scraps and lucky for me, I had a FEW of those laying around!!
To make it easy on all of the MDC design team members, we decided to just use anything from Tamara's store. Of course, this was NOT that easy because I had so many things that I wanted to use, I had trouble narrowing it down! Throughout the day, the others will be posting their creations so be sure to check them out! I do know that Maria already has hers posted! Maria was the stores guest designer last month and because she is so talented and such a WONDERFUL person, Tamara asked her to stay on with us! I am sure Jennifer will have some beautiful card to share soon and Tamara will share hers this afternoon!
The base of my card is More Mustard and is 5 1/2 square. The next mat is a light pink piece of old scrap cardstock from some unknown company and then a piece of brown which is included in the Basic Grey ~ Sugared 12x12 Collection. I then used a scrap of the mustard paper (also in the collection) which I added a decorative edge to by using my Fiskars border punch. I added a striped piece of decorative paper up where there was a gap between the brown paper and the top of the mustard paper. This is right below where I tied the mustard and pink grosgrain ribbons. The sweet pea sentiment is from the Sugared rub on pack. The clear crystal bling is from Prima which I used my Quickie Glue pen to adhere them. I also added this same bling to the flowers on the Serendipity ~ Sleeping Bunny piece. Tamara should receive a new huge shipment of Serendipity Stamps any day now which will include NEW ones and re-stocking the ones currently sold out! The bunny was stamped on Whisper White cardstock using Black Stazon ink. I colored using my Prismacolor Pencils and added the White Flock using my Quickie glue pen. The flowers are stickers that are included in the 12x12 Sugared Collection. Tamara does have some Basic Grey in the house but not yet on her site so if you are interested in any of the products I used today, just send her an Email.
The 3 strips of floral paper are mounted on a piece of pink decorative paper as is the bunny image. I used dimensionals to adhere the bunny on to my card. Here is a close ~ up of the bunny ~
You can also get a better idea of how beautiful this paper is....
Thanks again for stopping by and I hope you all have a FANTASTIC weekend!
