Here’s one of the cards I made today for craft day.  I used the Secret Garden set from the Stampin’ Up! Spring catalog, as well as the Window Frame framliets (by Sizzix for the Big Shot), and the Print Poetry designer series paper stack, also from the Spring catalog.  I had an idea for this one, but it wasn’t turning out like I saw it in my head.  Liz Hamman suggested I cut extra flowers from Marina Mist and use them as a mat behind the blue flower.  And she liked the flowered side of the designer paper better, so I turned that over.  She also had the idea to emboss the Very Vanilla layer, scallop the bottom edge and layer the two yellow flowers.  So, basically, this is Liz’s card.

I love the way it turned out – and it’s almost like Liz was in my head and saw what I was trying to accomplish.  Liz creates some of the most beautiful cards ever.  They’re very elegant, and I appreciate the help with this one.

We’re bracing for another storm here, so that means another day of stamping.  Wooohooo!  Have a wonderful day – snow or no snow – and thanks for stopping by Stamping with Buffy!
