Jennie's Challenge... Make a Gift
Happy Monday everyone! Wow... it was one crazy Monday for us!! We were informed THIS morning... son had a science fair at the school tonight! He also had tutoring after school... and THEN... piano lessons after that... and I had an appointment with my gym personal trainer and daughter had dance lessons for an hour!!! Sooooooooo hubby and I had LOTS of running to do but... surprisingly everything got done and we made it to the science fair on time!!! Phewwww.... time to relax finally!!
Today I am sharing my "gift" I made for Jennie Harper's Release Party Challenge #3. We were to use a stamp set and make a gift for someone with it. I chose "Floral Wreath" for my stamp image and made this welcome sign for my mother. This stamp set is FREE from Gina K Designs when you buy three other stamp sets this month!!
Her kitchen is done in yellow with little hints of red in the wallpaper on one wall so I decided this would look perfect where she always ends up with her guest. What better place to share coffee and chat, huh?
I used some cardboard that was in a pack of paper I had ordered and cut the squares from it before adhering my Pure Luxury Heavy Base Weight dandelion card stock. I stamped my images and colored them with Copic markers. Next I added self-adhesive pearls to each square and a few Prima flowers. My lace was originally white and I sprayed it with some Glimmer Mist to change it to a red tint.
I hope she likes it!!
Tomorrow I'll share the cards I created for my "12 Days of Christmas Challenge" I posted during the Release Party.
Have a great evening... I'm going to take a break and rest a bit before I had off to bed. Long day! *smile*
