I had the pleasure of crafting along with three of my wonderful friends - no it was not while side-by-side [darn it] but together would have been a huge bonus!
Our generous friend, Bonnie, sent three of us a little envelope filled with a bounty of blooms - Pinkfresh Dahlia's to be exact. We each came up with our own design and today we're sharing them with you - the REST OF our wonderful crafty friends!
Here's my card - hope the girls like it!
This sentiment [from Pinkfresh's Hydrangea and Rose set] was stamped with Veramark and heat embossed using Ranger Princess Gold. A few little pearls complete my very feminine card!
Please join me as I make the rounds, won't you? I know we'll be both amazed and delighted! Thanks so very much for your generosity, Bonnie!
It was so much fun playing together even if it wasn't in person, Michele! I love how you've arranged these flowers around that beautiful circle! It made a gorgeous springtime wreath! Thank you for always inspiring me!
ReplyDeleteI just came over from Bonnie's blog - and wow! This is awesome. Such a beautiful card. I love all the gold accents.

Gorgeous! How fun to play along with stamper friends!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!! Love how you arranged the pretty Washi Dahlias around that lovely frame. The foiled sentiment is perfect. So nice to have great stamping friends that share. So enjoy all the inspiration from you ladies.
ReplyDeleteYour card is absolutely STUNNING Michele, and I love that you used the Canson cs with the soft creamy white color that goes so well with the soft colors of the flowers and leaves...a perfect match! And how is it that I've never borrowed that PFS circle die??!! You definitely need to set that out when I come next time!! It made a lovely wreath when you added the flowers around it, and I would love something like that on my front door!! So glad Bonnie inspired us all to play...and INSPIRED I definitely have been! Lovely, lovely card my friend! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to when we can do it side by side, Michele, but this was the next best thing. I love the texture you got by using watercolor paper and the dimension with that wonderful circle die. Together they made a beautiful wreath card for that friend.
ReplyDeleteHow fun, and the card is gorgeous. Lovely to have crafty friends that share, isn't it. Off to see the rest of the creations.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful gift to get in the post and what a great way to share stash. Great idea to turn yours into a half wreath, it works a treat xx

ReplyDeleteYou said it perfectly - I am amazed and delighted by all the cards you ladies made with these die cuts from washi tape. Your card looks beautiful with the dahlias around that gorgeous circle die. The gold embossed sentiment added a touch of elegance to the card as well.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! The texture of the watercolour cardstock is lovely too. Crafting with friends is always fun!
ReplyDeleteThis is stunning, Michele!!! It looks like those blooms were made for placing around that fancy circle die---such a perfect pair up!!! And how fun that you got to get crafty with friends!!!!! Awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteHow fun to craft together with friends even if not side-by-side, Michele! This card is gorgeou, and I love it! The creamy white wartercolor paper is perfect for the lovely dahlia blooms of soft colors! The circle frame, the gold embossed sentiment, and the pearls give a stylish and elegant touch to the card.

Such a beautiful creation. You know I love those Pinkfresh washi designs. The texture of the card base is lovely, and that circle die is so perfect for the base of your wreath. A beautiful product of a fun gathering!
