overview


different over view perspective

Notes:
a. with using such busy designer patterned papers I chose to use a full background honeycomb pattern
b. then instead of having almost full length vertical strips over it, I went with smaller strips mounted on bold pink cardstock that were lifted off the surface of the card with mini size foam squares
c. I haven't located any of my old stockpile of brads so I stapled on the paper flowers and then added the bold pink pearl gems over or around the staple to complete my floral clusters. I'm so glad I did this because the color impact is fabulous.
d. Now to get this bright cheery encouragement card in the mail to a church friend!

    1. Thanks, Laurel! I'm really INSPIRED by my old stockpile and glad to have access to items not ruined from storage that were in garage and not touched by the house fire last August. Now to take time to sort and organize all the different supplies is a whole 'nother matter!!!!!
