This week I am late loading my Midnight Madness Card. I was away with my family on a vacation. I set my blog to post my card while I was away.
About a couple weeks ago, my husband wanted me to take a ride to a pool place called Pinch-A-Penny to get some chemicals for our above ground pool. There was a Walmart next to it so I went in and found this beautiful lace trim. I am thrilled with how pretty it is and wish my Walmart here in town carried stuff like it!!! I used Spellbinders large scalloped edge squares and Martha Stewart's two sized butterfly punches. I colored my images with pencils and then stickled the edges. All and all they are pretty sweet together. It is going to be hard for me to send this one away to someone...lol

Somehow I missed this one, Carol. I'm so very sorry--it's absolutely adorable!!! Those colors are so, SO very pretty. Love the lace trim you used and all of the groups of 3 embellishments!! Our Wal-Mart in my town used to have a decent fabric/sewing notions department with nice lace trims and pretty fabrics, but they shut down that dept, hmmm, maybe 2 years ago? I really miss it. Glad to hear that somewhere, some Wal-Mart still has good stuff!!!
