Fussy and Feminine

Good morning to everyone this nice spring day....I'm hoping!  It looks to be sunny and cooler....spring jacket weather, but that's okay.  There's still lots to do outside, and that is no fun when it gets too hot.


Today I've got a card using this pretty Wedding Shoe image from Just Inklined.  No weddings coming up so I think I will use it for a birthday card.  It wistfully takes one back....to when shoes were bought for style rather than comfort!

The image is lightly coloured with copics, and then I've added stickles to the flowers for lots of sparkle.  A pretty bow and matching pearls along with a number of die cuts go into the making of this simple but very feminine card.  As you can see, I've used the corner die in a different way...not in the corners but as a floral spray behind the matted image.

Supplies used:
Paper from MME - Honey Cake collection
Nellie Snellen - Oval Frame Die Set
Memory Box - Madera Corner die
Spellbinders - Inverted Scalloped Circles
Sentiment stamp from Wild Rose Studio

Thanks for stopping by today, and here's hoping you have a fun weekend!
