Timeless Tuesday ...lace


Well I'm back from Seattle and ready for the Tuesday challenge at Flourishes.Maki is asking us to be lacey...hey I know about racey and I am a little bit spacey but lacey is really not my forte. Not wanting to be ornery, I will go along and use some lace. I don't have my own supplies as they are locked in the storage unit so guess who I had to turn to for some help???

Did you figure it out? Well of course it's the DD who has a nifty craft room just waiting to be messed with. I used her Flourishes Sunflower set and did a little bit of Copic magic. I'm not certified ( at least not in the Copic world ) so let's face it, I just did the best I could and I know you are saying...where the heck did she find a hot pink type sunflower. Well have you ever been sun burnt? That's what happened to Miss Sunflower Sue. I think with my fancy shmancy paper which is kind of hot pink or fuschia it all goes pretty well. I got a bit crazy and used two pieces of lace. What's an old broad to do when she gets told to use lace, well she uses lace. Hope you all have a happy week going on. See you soon.

Your card is gorgeous Pat, and the fun of stamping is that we can make any flower any color we want!! You could teach me about Copics, this is colored so beautifully! I love the lace on the side too! How was your vacation? Hope you had fun:)

Hi Pat,
It's a LOVELY card - just the right touch of lace! You are so fortunate to have your DD close . . . although I realize it involved a huge move.

The colors you used are delicious - your flower is so pretty . . . just delightful!

Hugs!
