Our sponsor this week is Sue, our own Design Team member has her own online store. She has Digis, the one on this card is one from her store and I purchased this wood paper from her several weeks back and now she has even more in stock, they are very nice with different grains/shades of wood.
We are also excited to announce that "Simon Says Stamp" is our August Monthly sponsor, they are offering a very generous prize of a $50 gift Certificate for our monthly August winner, best of luck to all of you!
I can't forget you tell you something about my card! The wood paper was a pleasure to work with and notice that I used a Martha Stewart edge punch on the front of the card. I colored in the digi's and added some sparkle and placed a half pearl in each of the flower centers. I also placed a orange button on the card front and to secure the beautiful brown lace bow, I placed a 2 prong brad in the two holes that are in the button. I did think that that was very clever of me but I am sure you other clever crafters already knew all about that!!
Thank you for viewing my card, visiting my blog and taking the time to leave your comments. Hope you have a great week.
This is beautiful Jane!! love your color combo with the wood paper and the addition of all the pearls and sparkle. Gorgeous creation! You did an awesome job using one of Sue's digis!! Way to go GF!

Hi Jane! Your orange petunia's go beautifully with the hickory wood paper! I would never have thought to color them orange and I love them this color MORE than the colors I've used in the past! Fantastic job on this beautiful card! Thank you again for using one of my images. I was so excited to see what you would do with it! GORGEOUS!
ReplyDeleteHi Jane, Sorry it's taken me so long to get here. It's been back-to-school week at my house. But, I wanted to be sure to stop by. I love your card with the wood background and Sue's digi petunia. It's so warm and welcoming. I'm amazed you could use a Martha Stewart punch on the wood. That's so awesome! :) Michelle
