For my card, I am using ODBD The Lord is Risen stamp set. I am using Mercy Tuesday Sketch Challene MTSC72! I am using some gem flourished accenting for the swirl element on the sketch. I am also using a decorative pin for today's SCS Ways to Use it Challenge(WT269)! I added one Martha Stewart butterfly punch to it. For my "new" item, I created the layered distressed flower using Flower Soft. This is a new product for me. I was playing around with it and wanted to try to use it differently than what I have seen. I was not going for a perfect looking covered flower....one that was more crushed and distressed. I love the way my distressed and very textural flower turned out. I may need to get more colors of this stuff. Can you imagine a deep red to create a poinsettia look for Christmas? Lots of possibilities! This card is also for this week's The Shabby Tea Room: "Get Your Bling On" Challenge #8! Definitely got some bling going on! For the something old, I am using some pink pirouette cs and some left over bella rose dp. I am so happy that even though these are "old" the colors will soon be revived! For my something "received," I am using one of two lace trims that sparklegirl(Silke) sent me. This one is a crisp, very intricate white! I thought it worked perfectly with the delicate printed papers and the pink pirouette color to allow the flower element to pop a bit. Thanks, Silke!
As always, thanks so much for stopping by!
