Hello friend, thanks for stopping by. It is Sunday night for me- the weekend seems to go by so fast - but I did manage to get in a little bit of creating...using bits and pieces left over from various Workshops to create this card with a nostalgic feel.
The image is from Tim Holtz - The Girls cling stamp set - it is a favourite with me - looks very similar to me when I was a toddler - in the days when my Mum cut my hair and my fringe was never straight - LOL - just as well Mum doesn't read this! Wink:wink! I have stamped the image in Imagine Memento Ink in Espresso Truffle . She has been framed using the circle from the Spellbinders Shapeabilities Laced with Love Blooming Collection Etched Dies and the Platinum Die Cutting Machine.
This has been layered onto a card front that has been but/embossed using an older Spellbinders Die cut, glued onto a pre-cut pink card base. The flower has been cut/embossed using Shapeabilities Heart & Home Flower Play Etched Dies and a Want2Scrap large pearl brad added to the centre. This has been layered onto the Shapeabilities Inspire Bird Banner Etched Dies and popped up onto the card base using Scrapbook Adhesives BY 3L 3D Foam Squares.
Three buttons have been adhered to the right side of the framed image, a medium Want2Scrap white pearl has been adhered to the centre and Kindy Glitz/liquid glitter has been added.
A handmade paper clay butterfly has been adhered to the top left of the frame and a white pearl adhered to the centre of the body, along with some shimmer. The sentiment has been cut/embossed using the Spellbinders Shapeabilities Simply Said Phrase Set One Etched Dies and brown cardstock, then glued above the frame.
