A thank you card using the sketch from this week. I cut both the bow (Lil Inker) and flower swirl at Die club this last Friday. The EF is "Vine Pattern" from Darice. The white circle behind the pink with sentiment is from the Spellbinder Rosette Wall (I cut it from the EF). I added a few half pearls colored with copics to match. The Thank You is from Serendipity and it is one of my favorites, I first spotted it on one of Reddyisco's cards!
Thank you so much for stopping by to take a peek. It is always appreciated.
EDIT: Oh My Gosh... I can't believe I forgot to tell you about the most fun part of this card! I was digging through one of my craft drawers in search of something and I came across this NEVER USED Score Bug. Major distraction...totally forgot about what I was looking for! What is that? she says.... I go to my computer and proceed to do research...AND find out it is a Score Bug and proceed to watch a tutorial (can you believe it?) on how to use it. SOOOOOO the little tiny bumpy lines (in lieu of scoring) on the top and bottom panel behind my circles was done with my "first time in the gallery" Score Bug... is that a hoot or what? I see many of you smiling.... somewhere YOU have one too!

Peggy, what wonderful soft shades of pink you chose!!! There are many things I love about this card, like the gorgeous bow............but one thing in particular that I love is how you used that embossed rosette behind the circle.............VERY clever!!!

This is soooooo elegant. And I love your white circle mat using your score bug. Never would have thought of doing that. Thanks for the inspiration. Makes a beautiful presentation.

How did I miss this gorgeous card...I love it. The bkg ef is the perfect choice and I love your bow. Nope, I have never heard of a score bug, but it sure turned out great. Pinned and faves.

Oh Peggy, I'm still laughing I don't have a Score Bug, but I do have a QuickStik - which I purchased in Phoenix so you know how long I've had the thing. Well, several weeks ago I was reading Lydia's (Understandblue)blog and she was talking about a revelation she had with a particular tool called a QuickStik. Did you know one end of that tool can be removed to help with placement? YES! Here's Lydia hilarious blog piece in case you think I'm kidding
I jumped up and ran to my craft room and pulled that puppy out of my tool caddy and sure enough there's another end to that tool! Yes, Ma'am! Who Knew!
Peggy, as always, your card is absolutely dreamy. Gorgeous die cut elements creating a lovely feminine design.
