Oh Alison! What a gallery, I could be there all day! I cased Get Well because I loved the elegance of your work. Your gallery is very inspiring, and I felt like I got to know another wonderful stamper. Thanks for sharing your creations!
Using Alison's layout, I changed the colors and images, and replaced her yummy bow with some blooms. These gorgeous paper roses were a gift from my friend Tosha, and I smile to think of her every time I use them. This card is for Tina, a life-long friend. Tina loves white-on-white with hints of cocoa in home deco and clothing, and when I saw Allison's card, I knew this would be for her.
The bg stamp was also a gift form Tosha, and is from A Stamp in the Hand. Using chocolate velvet EP, I embossed the Queen Anne's Lace from Garden Silhouettes. The Birthday tag is from Well Scripted and it's bg is from Tiny Tags, done in Close to Cocoa.
Have a wonderful day Alison!
