Hey, I'm back with my second post for today. This time I'm playing along with
The Shabby Tea Room Challenge #110. The colors really called to me. And...I wanted to use some of the pretty aqua mist felt I purchased recently.
*** Edited to add...oops, I was too late for the challenge! Ack! ***
Here's the challenge photo provided by Tammy. So, so pretty...
I recently saw a card on Ivana's blog that I just
loved. You can see her card
HERE. The layout of her card inspired mine.
My card ~
Ahhh...I love these colors together. That aqua color is Stampin' Up's pool party. It seems to be my favorite color card stock lately :) The aqua mist felt is from Papertrey Ink. I was surprised how closely they match. The pool party card stock was die cut with Papertrey Ink's front & center II die, which is
actually meant to be used as the front (and back) of a gift bag. I cut off just the top few inches from the die cut, for my card. I left the "handle" of the die cut intact. I added more die cuts, a rolled flower and then a vintage button (it's a very, very light pink color) tied with some linen thread.
Thank for taking a peek at what I've been up to!
