** 2/8/14 Top Pick at Inkspirational Challenges! **
Hi everyone! Hope you're keeping warm wherever you are this chilly weekend! I'm in north Florida and it's been wonderfully chilly here! The hubster and I don't do heat real well anymore, so we embrace the cooler weather! Please say we're not strange! ;)
I'm back this morning to share another CAS card, a Springtime flower bouquet note card, I created this weekend with a couple stamps from the Love and Prayers stamp set in my new Journey of the Heart StampTV kit. I have to admit that I wasn't happy with the way it originally turned out so I did a slight re-do and it looks much better I think!
I stamped the single flower in several Memento colors and fussy cut them all. Sadly I don't have a Silhouette so I cannot take advantage of the free cutting files that go with this StampTV kit... darn it... but I shall work on that! ;) Prior to layering the flowers, I stamped the leaves in two colors of green for variation. I stamped the sentiment and added three white flat-back pearls to finish. I really like this! I left the inside blank to use as a note card. [Update: I got a Silhouette Cameo a couple days ago and so far I love it!]
