It has been great to be able to get back to creating again. While I was nursing my elbow pains I missed making cards for several birthdays and events. One of the most recent birthdays I missed was that of fellow Canadian and SCSer whiterockmama.
If you wander through her wonderful gallery you'll find that she loves Mojo Monday sketches, Verve stamps, punched borders, butterflies, nesties, Swiss Dots, Costco designer paper packs and diving for ribbon in Michael's bins. I've tried to use as many of these things on her card as possible - the Swiss Dots just wouldn't work with that textured background though... Stamped one flower on white, coloured it with a SU marker and punched it out in a circle. Stamped a second flower onto the dp, cut it out and popped it on top of the first.
Those wee pearls were sent to me by whiterockmama herself - thanks Marisa!
Hope you had a great day...
I've just retaken a new photo - hope this uploads OK...
I'll get this in the mail later this week!

Heather, this card is gorgeous. How kind of you to make this for your friend. I just love the pink and black together. I also love the verse, the butterflies and of course all the pearls. Wonderful job.
