You’re Fabulous
Hello! 
Here I am writing my blog entry at 1am….zzzzzzzzz… It’s been a long day! 
I went to the nursery this morning to pick out several plants for my new landscaping!! OMG I am SO EXCITED about it! Right now the front of my house is pretty “blah”, and I’ve wanted to have it landscaped for a long time. Thanks to Uncle Sam, it’s possible. I’ll be sure to share before and after pics with you!
I created this card this weekend, and am really happy with how it turned out. Hope you like it too?
I haven’t used my Lockhart La Fleur Couture stamps in awhile, and I don’t think I’d ever used this lavender/primrose one! It’s one of my very faves, though. I paired it with another fave…Memory Box sprout patterned cardstock. It’s colored with my Copics, (YG03, YG17, V15, V17, Y17, Y21) then cut and embossed with my petite oval Spellbinders Nesties. It’s matted with a scalloped Prism frosted amethyst panel, and popped up on another scalloped layer from the sprout paper pack.
I wanted to do something a little different with the Spellbinders double ended tags. I decided to cut and emboss the largest one from the striped pattern, then adhere it to the center of the cardfront. I then added some Bazzill eyelets, and threaded the Creative Impressions ribbon (from my LSS) through. I mounted this to a white cardbase, then adhered the focal image.
Lastly, I stamped the Verve Visual sentiment, and blinged up the dress with my favorite star dust Stickles!
Hope you all have a wonderful day! I’m going to BED! 
This card is “fabulous!” Love the pp and all the sparkle! Late night for me too! Hope you share some of your wonderful photos of the new landscaping process!
