Just playin’…

Hooray for my 400th post! :)

Tonight I made this card for Lucy’s Sketch Challenge and A Blog Name Hero’s Challenge, which was to create a card in the shabby-chic or vintage style.

I used Hero Arts‘ True Friendship and Tiny Ink Spots, which was inked up in grey and yellow on the background. I added lots of flowers and pearls, and stitched the bottom right corner to make this a little more shabby. :)

Thanks very much for stopping by!

    This is so gorgeous, Suzanne! I love the soft colors that you used, and I am head over heels for the ink spots you used on the background. I thought you stamped onto patterned paper, but no - you’re just brilliant!
