For You Friend

Hello friend!  Thank you so much for all of your words of congratulations!  They meant so much!  I am very excited about my new adventure!  It is such an honor. 

Today I decided to take the plunge and challenge myself to make a card using Mona's newest color challenge over at her new Challenge blog CR84FN!  With the gorgeous colors and inspiration pictures she picks each week I couldn't help but get creative!  Thanks Mona!


Adhered Melon Berry Bitty Dot patterned paper (PTI) on the top and bottom of the card front, stuck on some really fun Tissue Tape from Tim Holtz in the center. 


Adhered a doily, patterned paper die cut, rhinestone flourish and layered it with a chipboard piece covered with Mica Flakes. 


On top of the chipboard I attached a few layered flowers, stamped a leaf image from Turning A New Leaf (PTI) in Ripe Avocado, cut it out and adhered it.  Stamped my sentiment in True Black from the Mat Stack 2 Collection set from Papertrey Ink.


Thank you so much for stopping by!  Be sure to stop by tomorrow!  Cardabilities is celebrating it's One year Anniversary and we are celebrating all month with prizes and fun fun sketches! 

Lindsay
