WOW! Two posts in one day - what is the world coming to?!
The reason I wanted to post again today is because of Andrea Ewen (check out her blog - it's awesome!) She created a card using this paper yesterday and she inspired me to try using the same papers but create a completely different card. Thanks for the jump start Andrea! I also got this Pink Paisley Queen Bee DP at ACMoore in their wonderful new scrapbook selection. I was so excited to see that they are now selling Spellbinders Nesties too!
Some dear friends of mine just got engaged and this may end up being a card just for them. Way to go Aaron and Laura! We are all so excited for you!
I have been wanting to use some swirls and flourishes on my cards but have not been brave enough until now. On this card I went all out and actually added some bling to part of the swirl to emphasize the image. Here's a close up :
Hope you have a fantastic weekend!
