How could I NOT do a card for yesterday's FS, GramJean?! We Jeans need to stick together. I am Grandma Jean to my two girls; they have three grandmas. One is called Ama (Icelandic), one is Grandma T (Teresa) and then there is me, the favorite. No, I'm just joking. The twirly girlies are very lucky to have three awesome Grandmas. And I have been called 'Glamma Jean' by some friends. This is what I CASEd: Script Thanks by GramJean at Splitcoaststampers
I have always loved a fabulous background with a circle or oval in the center, all done and dusted. The only things I kept was floral and that center focal point.
This is also for today's TLC, presented by Sabrina. Great fun and I can't remember if I've done this. Probably, but can't remember. I made two panels with the same stencil and colors because the first one (the oval) turned out a bit underwhelming. I used a brayer to add the speckled egg, it was a little patchy. The second panel was clear embossed on white, then the color added. I have always loved this leafy stencil. I can't believe it but I used a sticker for the flower. Our $1.25 store has a huge selection of stickers and I find them to be quite nice, with lots of dimension and colors. They come popped up, which is a bonus. I did add a little ink for the center and then two colors of LP. Thanks for the challenges, ladies!
