Hello my friends!
Today I have a card for the new challenge over on The Sisterhood of Crafters!
Our theme today is:
For the LADIES
I didn't want to make just a floral card so I went to Pinterest and did a search on 'For the Ladies Cards' just to see what it came back with. Well, I came upon this card and the originator actually had a YouTube video on how to create it. HERE'S the link.
I used designer paper from the Mintay 'Yes I Do' paper pack and 'old' SU Pink Pirouette card stock. My buttons and pears were created with Nuvo Crystal Drops and the flowers are a couple old ones from my Prisma stash. Nuvo was also used for the flower center.
TIP: To get my pearl necklace so even, I took one of the smaller circle dies
and laid it on the white panel and then put my Nuvo drops. Using the die
as a guide. Be careful when pulling the die away as not to disturb your drops.
This is my 1st time making a 'shirt/blouse' card and I can already
see a few changes I would make using the products I have on hand. The
demonstrators looks better but then again I made an A6 card and she
made an A2 ... believe it or not, that does make a bit of difference.
I hope you'll come join in our challenge fun at The Sisterhood of Crafters!

We were so on the same vibe. I had not seen yours till I was ready to post mine. Very cool way to get your string of pearls on straight.
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool, I think your looks terrific, very creative with the pearl necklace too, Gorgeous papers and flowers for it too! Thanks for sharing the link :)
ReplyDeleteOh, for heaven's sake, this is way too darn cute! The papers are perfect for it, and the pearl necklace and buttons are the perfect finish. I really can't say enough. I'm picturing old-timey grandma or "church lady". What an absolutely FUN way to use your papers!
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty blouse card, Darlene. Great tip about layering your pearls. I can't do it by hand either. I normally go looking around for an object that fits and then trace it with thin glue dots. Then quickly place the pearls on the dots before the glue has a chance to dry :-)
