Good morning! As promised I have a second take on Monday's card. This version is much more my style.....shabby. ;) I used a fluffy pink yarn as my "thread." I used this gorgeous Prima flower, a doily, ribbon and a couple of stick pins to finish it off. It was a fairly simple card to make, and I was happy with the results.
Cort's prom is not until the beginning of May, but last year we waited a bit too long and the dresses were picked over. So I am glad we went early enough to find a dress that we all could agree on. (My husband has strong opinions about what she should wear!) ;)
I love the shading of blue, the tulle, and the sequins. It is a color that works for her.
I have to laugh because my husband said to me, "Now we just need to go to Charmin' Charlies for accessories." LOL! Now that's an involved Dad! ;)
I am keeping it short and sweet today. I have to shovel all of the very wet snow off my van and driveway before heading to work. : O
Have a great day!!!
Beautiful card! And ooooooh...that dress is out of this world gorgeous. Can't wait to see pictures of Cort in it...it's going to make her eyes stand out even more!
