"A Beautiful Life" with Melanie

I do not know how she does it, but Melanie Muenchinger has created yet another FABULOUS set called, "A Beautiful Life" for Gina K. Designs. I have been a HUGE fan of the tulips in her older set, "A Year of Flowers" so this awesome set was just jaw dropping for me when I saw it. I think to date, I have made four cards with this set and it was just released last Thursday!! Kudos, Melanie... keep em coming, girlfriend!! For my wedding tulip card I stamped the image in Summer Sky Memento ink on White Pure Luxury Heavy Base Weight card stock. I used my Copic markers to color in the tulip and then applied a bit of a shine to the edges with my Sakura Stardust Glitter Pen and for the inner oval I used my Marine Stardust Meteor Glitter pens. My image was mounted on top a layer of In the Navy Pure Luxury Base Weight card stock and then I applied a ribbon edge all around the outside. My card base was made using the new Little Boy Blue Pure Luxury card stock. I have been soooooooo ready for Spring to come and when I see tulips pushing thru the ground, I feel refreshed and ready for a new day!! Believe me, there will be even more cards coming up on my blog using "A Beautiful Life". Can't you just feel Spring?? Have a great day! *smile*
