Remember my "Je t'aime" card from last weekend? It tickles me pink how much notoriety it has gotten!

WOW! I guess that was my 15 minutes of fame. ;-)

ReplyDeleteHow perfect for an anniversary card, Colleen! I love that fork and spoon image. It is delightfully old-fashioned looking! And isn't it fun that your card is all about food? I enjoyed reading about all of the food connections. Oh, and I had to peek at your supplies to see where you got those chocolate pearls! I've seen you use them so much and I realized that I really need {wink!} some. I'll put them on my Michael's list!
ReplyDeleteHope you had a super productive weekend! The plumbers are here now to finish up our kitchen sink swap project. :)
Let's eat! Ha. Fabulous card. Love all the food themed items and how you tied the baker's twine too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect farewell project for us. I remember it was a card with copic colored leaves that encouraged me to ask you to join the design team, so realistic and beautiful. Here you did it again with beautiful colors and perfect blending. Your butterflies look amazing. You will be missed! Stacey
ReplyDeleteWhat a really unique, cute, fun, and pretty card! A very unique idea too!
