Nothing like getting something done at the absolute last minute! Eek! I've been completely consumed with calendar making latelty (my *token* holiday gift), but I couldn't resist making a card for this week's Tuesday Trigger challenge.
I thought the inspiration photo was positively charming!
I love the elegance and the simplicity, something I tried to recreate in my card
It's hard to tell in the above photo, but a close up shows the shimmer paper I used a bit better. I thought a little shimmer would be perfect here, although I still find myself challenged with stamping on it (tricky - tricky!) - regardless, it's YUMMY paper!
I also thought the silver beads would be fun to play with in this card - despite the fact that they get EVERYWHERE! They sure are pretty though.
It felt good to spontaneosly create something, a stark contrast to the mass-production I've been engrossed in of late. Thanks for another fun challenge, Cath!
