I have wanted to get a card made for Mother Mark's Teapot Challenge all week, so today it was 'do or die'! This card was quick and easy, the lines are very simple (for me) and I am surprisingly happy with it!!
I didn't really have any heart stamps and have been busting to make something with this fabulous flower image that Peggy (aka Marilyn Prestonn) and friends sent me....so I chalked it, used a small circle punch to do ticketed corners and add brads.
I used 3D foam tape for the hearts next to the sentiment....oh yes, the image is on embossed cardstock...I sat and ran card through my Cuttlebug for nearly 3 hours last night as I have some EF's on loan from my friend Hannah (aka bubblefrog) while she is away...so I have a nice little supply..he:he!
Finally I tore and inked the floral DP and this finished it off nicely for me - what do you think? I value your comments and appreciate you taking the time to look!!!
