Flower Girl


If you have been visiting my blog, you'll know the two favourite elements I love to use on my cards are stamps and dies.  I love stamps that allow me to colour (so therapeutic), and fun dies to add interest to the card.  This card is a little more elaborate than my usual cards, and took me a little longer to put together.  The sweet Flower Girl image was coloured using Copic Markers and cut out.  Then I assembled the card using several dies from Cheery Lynn Designs and My Favorite Things.

Here's a closer look :

The pink heart was die-cut out and embossed using the matching heart die as the blue patterned paper and popped up with foam adhesive

Mini rosettes
I wished I looked half as sweet as this Pure Innocence Flower Girl years ago when I was a bridesmaid at a friend's wedding.  Hope you like the card.

I'll be back on Monday with a new Daisy Doodles challenge project.  Have a fabulous weekend!!

Oh, gosh! What a sweet little girl this is!! Love her!! What a cutie and all the flowers make it such a pretty card! Very nice! The stamping fair today was okay, but the workshops were not as nice as expected, so we didn't make it a very long visit, but we had fun! Hope you are also enjoying your weekend!!
Hugs, Wendy
