This photo inspired the design of the following card. I loved the color combination of pink, and cream. I knew I wanted to create a card that would be simple, but full of soft details. This card is going to be perfect for one of my girlfriends!
"They say it's your birthday!"
(Supplies: Cardstock-Bazzill, Patterned Paper-My Mind's Eye, Button- Jenni Bowlin,Ribbon- May Arts, Pin-Heidi Grace, Small flowers-Prima. Pearls-Queen and Company, Diecut label-My Mind's Eye, Paper Scallop Flowers, Stamp-Stampin Up)
Few details:
Notice the small flowers on the pin? I was inspired by these stick pins by Jenni Bowlin.
I know we all have those fabulous Prima Flowers in the glass jars! I know I have many of them in my stash! Now, I have a beautiful and easy way to dress up the stick pins. I have only used them probably twice on a card. I did feel that the pins needed something else. They were just kind of there, not really serving a scrapbooking purpose! LOL Tip: I used a tiny amount of glue (I used a hot glue gun), on the pin and slip the center of the flower through the pin. The flowers already had a tiny hole in their centers. Super simple, but makes a lovely statement!
Hope you are enjoying your day!!
Smiles,
