A gift for you

Hiya!!

I was going through all the photos on my laptop trying to organize them and came across a card I had not yet shared on my blog.

Last fall I participated in a secret sister exchange and I made this card to send to my secret sister.

I used a frame from Gina K's Lovely Labels 2 stamp set to create the focal image for the card. I cut the frame out using spellbinders Labels 16 and layered it on top of a couple of scalloped squares.

The pattern papers are Black Markets Let it Bloom and I paired them up with SU's Baja Breeze, Gina K's Tan Leather and Wine with Everything. I embellished the card with prima flower with button centers.
Enjoy the rest of your day and thank you so much for stopping by!!!

I sat down the other day and tried my hand at watercoloring with distressed inks. It has been ages since I have watercolored and I wasn't sure I remembered how to do it and I am thinking I need to practice some more. lol!

The flower image is from Gina K's Spring Florals stamp set and the sentiment is from her Labeled with Love set.

The Summer Sun cs was embossed with Tim Holtz's Rays embossing folder and the Always Artichoke cs was embossed with Cuttlebugs Forest Branches folder. I added a strip of ruffled ribbon and some rhinestones to finish off the card.
