It’s time for The Polkadot Door design Blog Hop and Inspiration Challenge,
That photo is so colorful and beautiful isn’t it? Here is what I created for it,
This anniversary card came together pretty quickly. I used a decorative scissors to cut the scallops and then added a ribbon. The sentiment was printed off the computer and used foam squares to pop it up.
In the close up photo you can see I curled up the paper a little bit– using a pencil and then a narrower paintbrush.
I also made another card last week (if you follow my blog you might have seen this!) that fits perfectly for this inspiration,
