Two cards in one day?! Crazy, I know, but I really didn't like my first one, so here I am posting a second.I finally got to play along with the Etsy Inspired challenge. The shop this week is whichgoose; she makes gorgeous nature-inspired crowns and hair combs, many of which are perfect for whimsical brides. I was inspired by this hair comb called grace.
What caught my eye were the colors, the satin ribbon, and the pearls, so I tried to recreate that feeling in my card. And how sweet is that tiny butterfly from Paper Blooms?My layout is the bonus sketch over at 2 Sketches 4 You, designed by the fabulous Latisha.
Be sure to stop by tomorrow for a fun announcement...
Stamps: Absolutely Fabulous (SU)
Paper: Basic Gray, PTI white, DCWV gray textured
