I only had an hour and a half to make this card this morning before heading off to a funeral, so I quickly checked out a few crafty challenges for inspiration. Usually it takes me three to four hours to complete a card because I second guess myself over and over, but today, partly because of the great inspiration and partly because of the time crunch, I completed it in record time. I just had a moment to snap a photo of it before I left, and here it is!
Recipe:
Words of Comfort & Best Wishes stamp sets
Sweetheart papers
Black & Colonial White cardstock
Baby Pink, Cotton Candy, Black & Versamark ink
White gel pen (Sakura)
Gold embossing powder
Paper Flowers (Recollections)
Flutter Just Blooms paper shapes
Licorice Opaques pearls
Cricut Artistry cartridge: frame
Pattern: Sketch-n-Scrap card sketch #237
Challenges: Tic Tac Toe Challenges #202 (used the top row with gold + butterfly + die cut)
Inkspirational Challenges #286 Mood Board (inspired by the pink flowers and the white window frame in the upper left corner)
