It feels like years since I have posted a card! Between traveling, end of school year craziness, and company, my craft room has been collecting dust. But finally I had a chance to get in there last evening. The stamps and inks I used here are all from Stampin' Up. I cut the flowers out and popped them up on dimensionals, and stickled the center of the flowers a bit. To color the flowers, I used markers and a blender pen. Added a few tiny pearls and rounded the upper right corner to finish it off.
Besides Chicago, NYC, and D.C., we also had the opportunity to travel to Machu Picchu in Peru. If you ever get the chance to go, it is a wonderful experience. My husband was the one who really wanted to go, and I agreed to go along for the ride. But I must say....words cannot express how happy I was that I went. What a breathtaking, almost magical place. I feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to see it with my own eyes.
Hope to be back soon with another post!
