Rosy Posy Frame

Here's a magazine reject (boo hoo) from a while back.  I held on to it and tried again and again to submit, but it was never chosen.  Ah well.  Now I get to share with YOU!


Stamped the floral spray from Elements of Style (Stampin' Up!) in pale pink on the card base, and the sentiment is from Magical Moments by Wplus9.   The frame took a while (I'm sure you can tell) to create with lots and lots and lots of punched hydrangea blossoms.  It was kind of fun that day, as I recall.


Thanks for visiting me today!



Stamps: Elements of Style - SU; Magical Moments - Wplus9 Paper: white - PTI; assorted pinks Ink: Pink Pirhouette - SU; Versafine Onyx Black - Tsukineko Accessories & Tools: hydrangea punch - Martha Stewart; pearls - Recollections, Queen & Co.

Let's hear it for "rejects" that get a spot in the limelight on the blog. This is so lovely and so you - the beautiful hydrangeas. So well done, Colleen.
