Hi Friends!
How's your weekend going? Mine is going well
so far. And, I can't complain about the weather
for today it's supposed to reach 60. That is very
unusual for NW Ohio in January...wow! But,
it doesn't hurt my feelings one bit...lol! I wanted
to get this posted before meeting up with some
friends for lunch. I don't see them every week
like I used to because I had to quit bowling due
to my back. Maybe one day I'll return to
bowling only time will tell.
Anyways, I'm here to tell you about my card.
I entered this card over at The Shabby Tea Room.
This week we were to follow the colors in the photo
and include ribbon/bow and a flower.
Here is the lovely elegant photo inspiration...
Isn't it a beauty?! That is one gorgeous display of
gifts! I've never wrapped a gift with such elegance,
but it certainly gives me inspiration to do so! My
card is really self-explanatory. I used a fancy
square die behind the dimensional flower with pearls
I added flowers, ribbon, bow, and a lovely button
from Webster's. Ok, friends, that's it for now.
Take care and have a great weekend, hugs!
