My daughter, Sara Williams (Tweaks and Designs), designed my new blog for a Mother's Day Gift!!! ISN'T IT GORGEOUS!! I love the colors, flowers, and little birds. She was so creative (as usual) with the fonts, design and all of it!! I was secretly hoping that she'd do this for Mother's Day for me (we certainly do think alike) and hurray SHE DID!! I made this card trying to use the same mum images and same colors to introduce the opening of my new blog!! I had ordered from Lizzie Anne the Garden Inspirations set (having seen a preview of what was going on the blog) so that I could use it on the first card going on the new site. I used Sage Shadow from Stampin' Up as the base color. The polka dot decorative paper is from Papertrey's Polka Dot Parade and the small floral under it was a freebie from Lizzie Anne that came with the stamp set. I mounted the two dp's were mounted on Blush Blossom (Stampin' Up). I used SU's Scallop Circle Punch for the large flower (colored with Copics). The leafy stem was colored with Stampin' Up's Sage Shadow and cut by hand. I punched the flowers from Blush Blossom using STU's Three for You punch box. Cat's Eye shading was used on all of the edges and 3-D Paint in tan was used as the centers of the small punch flowers. Dashes, Dots & Checks ribbons from Michael's accents the dp strip.
I love this card and think it is such a compliment to MY NEW BLOG!!
I hope you like it and the blog design.
