Take Two!
WOW, it’s been months since Lindsey, Michele, Julia and I got together for a Take Two challenge! I’m glad we were finally able to sneak one in. This time we paired Lizzie Anne Designs with Basic Grey. Two winning combinations, I think! 
Be sure to check out their blogs for their designs! I can’t wait to see them, too!
I am sooooooo in love with Basic Grey’s Sugared collection! I thought this print coordinated nicely with the dandelion image fr0m the LAD set In the Meadow. The dandelions and sentiment (”may all your weeds be wildflowers”) were embossed with detail white embossing powder, and the stems are stamped in Adirondack lettuce ink.
I chose my new Spellbinders long rectangle Nestability die for the scalloped panel, using Prism’s intense azalea cardstock. Cardbase is frosted azalea, and some final embellishments of self adhesive pearls and organdy ribbon complete the design. I used both pink and white organdy, and machine stitched it in place.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you enjoyed seeing another Take Two challenge with us!
Make today a great day! ~~HUGS!!
