Sentimental Sundays: Lace and Pearls

25022012775

Hello hello!

This week at Sentimental Sundays we have a theme of Pearls and Lace for you. Our sponsor this week is Saturated Canary. I wasn’t able to use one of her gorgeous images (as always I was late in requesting a digi) but I managed to make a card without any image.

I finally got my Distress Inks! YAY!! I used antique linen to distress the embossed background. The flower is handmade, it’s just a rough hand drawn design coloured with distress inks. The leaves are CB die.

Flashback 20.0

Helllooooo lovelies!!!! Oh how I missed you blog buddies! Thank you so much for all the “love notes” and “miss you’s”; I felt incredibly loved and blessed to know such a sweet bunch of crafters. Really. I mean it.

The wedding was AWESOME. Really, it was amazing. My aunts will be leaving by March 2nd and then the house will get totally empty :( but before they will leave we have consecutive dinners and lunches… and sometimes even breakfast parties anddd a trip to the beach this Sunday!

My blog seemed so quiet and lifeless, so I thought I’d change the blog header (just a bit) and post something from my previous work. Today I have for you my first black and white card. Most of you might remember this one.

I remember how proud I felt after making this, I took a picture within minutes of completing this and uploaded asap!
