So here is the iSpy sketch:
The Shabby Tea Room theme of 'Color Me Pretty' comes with this gorgous photo for inspiration and Tammy the designer asked that you create a card or project inspired by the photo USING WHITE/CREAM, PINK and BLUE plus FLOWERS and A FABRIC ELEMENT! (Your fabric element could be anything that is made from material - ribbon, lace, burlap, fabric, chenille, velvet, etc.).
And here is the card I created:
The papers I used had a definite pink and blue theme to them and there were also touches of white/cream throughout.
Paper - Bazzill Basics Vintage Marketplace, My Minds Eye and co-ordinating cardstock.
The first additional element of fabric came in the form of the fabric covered buttons that a found in my stash. I mounted these on scallop circles cut with my Quikcutz dies. I also added some seam binding, ric rac braid and picot lace to the card.
The flower element was made from an MFT scalloped rolled flower die. The buttons I chose also had flowers on them.
To finish off I also added the "Happy Birthday " sentiment.
Thanks for stopping by and taking a look!
