...and be inspired by it, too! The Inspiration Challenge on Splitcoast this past Saturday was to be inspired by the MOD Weddings Board on Pinterest. Here's my card:
(Stamp: Stampendous Elegant Borders; Ink: Versamark; Papers: Recollections white, Stampin'Up! Sage Shadow, Close to My Heart Cocoa Cafe (pink), DCWV dark green; Accessories/tools: Tim Holtz Tattered Floral Garland die, Sizzix Branch With Leaves Sizzlit, Stampendous Detail White embossing powder, mini brad, pearl)
And here's the cake that inspired it:
I loved the pink/green/white combo and the lace. I gave away all of my flowers some time ago, so I had to make one. I'm trying to be brave and do things that I'm not comfortable with - flowers that you have to assemble yourself DEFINITELY fall into that category, as does using 3-D flowers on a card. I'm almost never happy with the result... Regardless, I gave it a go, and added some leafy flourishes, to boot!
Everything I used on this card has been hanging around my studio for anywhere from two years to a decade, and the lace stamp has never seen ink until now, so I'm pretty proud of myself for staying the course on USING things this year instead of just letting them collect dust...
I hope that your week is off to a great start, and thanks for stopping by!
Love love love love loooooove. Love the color combo and it s spot on !!

What a gorgeous card! That lace stamp is beautiful, and you should be VERY proud of the flower! Isn't it grand to produce such a stunning card and you didn't have to go buy a thing! Way to go girl!
