A Little Challenge





Happy weekend to all you lovely stampers!

This is a 3 day weekend, and I should be doing something else...so shh...don't tell anyone I'm frittering away my day making paper flowers, adding glitter, distressing, smudging and fudging and otherwise making a bit of a mess...but this is what I came up with!

This is my take on this week's " The Shabby Tea Room"inspiration picture and also "Stamping Sister's in Christ"(distressing), and "Flourishes" monthly challenge to make your own flower.

The size of this card is 3 x6 inches...the design just seemed to dictate the size. I wanted to incorporate the little tea party in a nest image with the teapot...what do you think?

Thanks for stopping by!!

  3. I think its a lot of fun to make a card of a different size, we don't do that often enough! Looks great and I can really see the link to the inspiration photo. Pink is always a favorite color with me. Thanks for participating this week in the Stampin' Sisters in Christ challenge .
