My card for today's Technique Challenge - use an unexpected embellishment. The colors for the card came from this darling piece of ribbon, which my SIL used to to tie her wedding favors with.
On this card, my unexpexted embellie is the little mirror that is the center of my prima - it came out of an eyeshadow compact. DH thought I was silly for saving it, but I knew I'd use it one day!
DD helped me put stickles around the edge of the mirror, so it's a bit crooked on one side. But I'm sure the family member we give it to will love it even more since she helped!! And she only got stickles on 4 of her 5 cute little fingers during the process!

What a wonderful card, and it has so much more meaning because loving little hands help make it! What a wonderful memory for everyone! I love the little mirror. Perfect for the flower cnter.
