Tomorrow is my dear friend Ina's birthday. I took an hour or so out of making swap cards to make this card for her. I am planning on using the corner bookmark card layout as a shoebox project for an upcoming gathering I am going to in October. This was a good time to try it out and see how it went.
I used Staples 110 vanilla card stock as the base. The DP is by K & Company, from the Sera Sera stack. I matted it with Soft Sky and Close to Cocoa. Ina's favorite colors are blues, especially turquoise, so I added some ribbon in a no tie bow and finished things off with some stems and felt flowers by Jolee's Boutique. I scalloped the edge of the book mark with the SU! scalloped edge punch. I used the same DP on the bottom of the book mark and matted triangles of Close to Cocoa and Soft sky. I finished it off with some more felt flowers, and thought the red was a nice pop of color and didn't look too out of place because there was some red/pink showing in the DP.
I recoginze those flowers! LOL...Nice card Mel.!
