This challenge is the Tuesday Trigger at Moxie Fab World. Isn't this just the sweetest picture!
So all day I've been thinking about this card and it was gorgeous! Then I get home to put it on paper and .... well, not so. I've decided that I'm just not a tear-er. I can never get it to look nice like I've seen on some many other cards.
The the flowers gave me fits - my hands are just too big for such delicate work. I started with beautiful button flowers from Stampin Up but they were too big for the bench. Then I punched them with a Stampin Up mini flower punch - still too big. Then I remembered my flower hole punch - perfect size.
I may retry this card without the tearing - maybe cut a border around the edges with the Cricut.
I got the background stamp out and thought to myself, "self, why did you buy this stamp" but then I see it under the flowers and I really like it. It is stamped on vellum and then attached to the pink cardstock.
Thanks for stopping by. Keep your heart open, you may change a life with your creativity, Susan
I really like what you did with this card very nice !!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWell, I like both cards! I like the tearing :) It takes a while to feel like it's *right* when it's not your usual style. I also love that you shared it even though you don't like it - I find that really hard to do :)
