Just Having Fun

on
Hi everyone and happy Saturday!


First of all I want to express my concernment with the people in Japan who were so terribly hit by the earthquake, the tsunami and now have to deal with a dreadful nuclear 'crisis'. Sending prayers!!!


Now back onto crafty things
 Over at Moxie Fab World, Cath has chosen another wonderful 'Tuesday Trigger'
I recently bought some patterned papers from the new My Minds Eye Stella and Rose collection
And as soon as I saw the inspirational photo this lush paper 'Mabel Little Lady Posies' immediately came to my mind and so I had to use it for my card. 

close up 
(I stamped the flower on kraft cardstock and cut her out then put it on a foam pad for additional dimension)

challenges:

card recipe:
  • stamps - October Afternoon
  • patterned papers - My Minds Eye
  • other supplies - kraft cardstock from Bazzill, crinkled ribbon from Prairie Bird Boutique (etsy), selfadhesive crystals from My Minds Eye, pearl pin from Jenni Bowlin, white glaze pen from Sakura, distressing tool from Tim Holtz, Ancient Page ink, Distress ink, foam pads from stash, Glue Dots Mini

    Hi! Wow, das ist ja eine perfekte Karte - wie toll dieses Papier zum Tuesday Trigger passt! Danke für Deine lieben Kommentare! Ja, bei dem doily habe ich jedes Fitzelchen einzeln rausdrücken müssen - und manche waren richtig schlecht gestanzt. Aber die sind so hübsch! Liebe Grüsse! Vanessa x
