I have been working really hard on learning how to flourish with my dip pens and fountain pens. I did a really dark card for the DD theme this month, and wanted to do one that I could share with you with a lighter color palette....so when I saw this photo today: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/387591111654595709/
....I had all the excuse I needed to give it a go. I love this new die from Stampin' Up! and have always been crazy about their really tiny pearls (the smallest I've ever been able to find). They were perfect for the look I was going after!
Hope you're having as much fun as I am! I'm determined to get my Christmas cards out next weekend! LOL
Enjoy!

Gorgeous card. Until I read your post, I thought the tree was stamped... but couldn't figure out how you got the two colors. Very pretty! Thanks for sharing your creation.

You, my friend, are so awesome with your inspirational sights and your design skills and flair. This is a beautiful card. I love how you've integrated your pen tipping technique into this card. Totally awesome.
