Hello Friends!
It's Corina with you today - on this fabulous Friday! I wanted to start off by saying that I love checking out our Challenge each week here of the Cheery Lynn Blog and seeing every ones wonderful and lovely creations. I like to see what inspires each person, how they create and some times a glimpse into their life and thought process.
As I was making my card for this weeks post, 'ionabunny' blog post from her last weeks card challenge entry popped into my head! My card needs......This is exactly what she was talking about!
"Do you ever start a project and it just get bigger and bigger and bigger?? It just needs one little bit to finish it. And maybe a bit here. And there."
You are so right Gail/Iona/Crafty Nomad! - Love your posts!
As I mentioned last week, I sometimes cut the dies and use pieces of them. I
cut the Ribbon Eyelet Border die cut down the center and placed half on both sides of my pattern paper strip going down my card.
I also used the left over piece of my Chasing Rainbows Doily die cut from last weeks card! Added some ink and it made a wonderful layer! Never throw anything away!
Dies used:
Sweet Christine - B434
Tea Rose Medium - B436
Miniature Rose - B152
Coved Rectangle Classic - Silver Stackers - L-10
Add a Flourish (Set of 2) - B456
Chasing Rainbows Doily with Angel Wing - DL229
Tiny Things with Wings - B266
Ribbon Eyelet Border - B116
I hope you will play along in our weekly Challenge 134 - Roses. You could win a $20 shopping spree at the online Cheery Lynn Designs store!
Take care,
Live, Laugh & Create
