Today I have a bit of Spring for you. If you like me you are just about ready for some warmer weather. Not too warm though. I don’t want to be so hot that I want to be naked you know…
I know I am a little late but there have been changes going on here at the Crafty Cottage. Amazing all the things that can happen when it becomes a “we shed” I am in love with space even more now. Thanks, babe! We have a completed ceiling, you won’t see the purple insulation above my chandelier anymore!! Whoo Hoo. We have built a desk for the hubby in the craft cottage just for him. It is tight but I think we can make it work. The only problem will be trying to do my Facebook lives while he is working.
I have a very springy Spring card for you today with a touch of Gilded Leafing.
The Card
I needed a card to lift my spirits because when it rains here it pours for DAYS!!! I created this one when the sky was dark and dreary for several days. This girl just needed some sunshine. I was completely disappointed that the butterfly bijou paper was sold out and was not wanting to use that paper to inspire you if you could not get it. So I came up with this.
This simple beauty is using some scraps that I had left. I layered the embossed strips atop some basic white cardstock. The So Saffron Cardstock is stamped with poppies in Daffodil Delight ink from the Painted Poppies stamp set. The back of the card is Magenta Madness embossed with the Parisian Embossing folder. I used the retired Fabled Friends for my sentiment.
The sparkle of this card is using touches of the Tombo glue that spilled over to put a touch of gilded leafing in between the scraps of cardstock. Just like that, it went WOW!
