Happy New Year everyone!! It's so nice to be able to just *do what I want* today. Relax, stamp, read...whatever I feel like.
Well, I started this card yesterday with this darling flower image from the Charming Gardner set of Impression Obsession. I LOVE this set. It has a gorgeous tall jar filled with flowers, rainboots filled with flowers, and this sweet trio. Michelle has it and some more fabulous IO images in her store Stamper's Dream...along with a variety of stamps, fantastic papers, ribbon and embellishments.
Oh, back to the beginning...I started this card yesterday, and couldn't find the *perfect* ribbon. FedEx helped though. It brought me my new papers from Emma's Paperie!! And in the box, she included some of this darling gingham ribbon!! PERFECT!! It was just what I needed to finish this card. I added a Stampin' Up button, and to finish it off, and add a bit of silver for today's Ways to use it Challenge on SCS, I added this adorable little watering can charm that I got from StarLitStudio. Cindy has some fabulous charms and other goodies in her awesome store, so you should go check it out.
I colored my image with copics and added a touch of glitter to the flower centers. The edges are all ink distressed with Old Paper and Frayed Burlap (Ranger Distress), and the pearls are from Kaisercraft.
The corners were punched with a darling punch that I received from my dear friend JoJot, and the back panel is Labels I by Spellbinders.
Supplies:
Stamps - Charming Gardner (Impression Obsession)
Paper - Rusty Pickle, White and Kraft (Prism)
Ink - Tuxedo Black (Memento), Old Paper and Frayed Burlap (Ranger Distress)
Accessories - Pearls (Kaisercraft), Charm (starlitstudio), button (SU), Ribbon (Emma's Paperie), Corner punches, glitter, dimensional tape
That about sums it up. Thank you so much for visiting my blog. I hope you have a fabulous first day of the new year!!
