Inspired By #161 - pretty as a pitcher!

 

As much as I have total recall of my supplies - lol - only one set came 
to mind when I looked at this photo inspiration for IB161's Pretty as a Pitcher!
This is going to be one of those something old + something new cards!
Sweet Havana from Mama Elephant meets Reverse Confetti's Plaid Lines =

I'm so sorry to report that this set is no longer available =[


Some images stamped and die-cut, some stamping directly onto my
linen cardstock.  Here are my inks:


I'm sure my teammates will have thoroughly frame-worthy cards -
let's go see, shall we?  IB161

  12. Beautiful and so sweet! I love pitchers. I don't know what it is about them. This pitcher is just lovely. And to me the flowers look like pink lilacs. Even if they actually aren't that is what they make me think of. Happy smile. Your visually neat background highlights the focal image in such a lovely way. Thanks for sharing, Michele. Hugs.

  15. Simply wonderful. I am trying to work out that background. Is it embossing or die cut vellum on grey card. Whatever it is fabulous xx

  18. Love this, Michele. So pretty.
    I could do with a jug of those blooms on my kitchen counter.
