For today's CAS challenge we were inspired by Debbie's (mom2n2) Your Sweet theme.
This was SUPPOSE to be a wedding card...wanna hear the story?
It's pretty basic, it's called not paying attention to what you're doing. I wanted to use the bride stamp from Blooming with Happiness and was going to use the MS Hydrangea punch to punch a million little white flowers to layer and fill in the dress and make it all frilly and pretty BUT, I made my punched border to tall so the image didn't fit. Darn it!! Okay, no worries, just use the cake image from the same set that'll work! Oh sheesh, cake fits, candles don't. Scratch the wedding theme~~on to the umbrella. But oh, guess what? Coordinating sentiment for OVER the umbrella doesn't fit either... thus, the shower card.
Here are my details: I used my very FAVORITE new color; SU's Wisteria! Punched 3 borders with a MS punch and layered. Added the umbrella image from Blooming with Happiness and the sentiment from Teeny Tiny Wishes. Finished with a white satin ribbon.
Off to work...sigh. TFL and I will look forward to reading your comments. Have a happy day!
