This week the twisted sister's challenge was given by Kathy aka Airborne101. She challenged us to use a coffee cup or tea cup image, lace, pearls and incorporate a die or punch. I am using a Squigglefly image, tea cup roses, that I colored with copics. The paper is My Mind's eye, the Lost and Found collection. I dug through boxes to find the string of pearls, pulled out some tulle and added the half doily which is the lace portion of the challenge. I used spellbinders to cut the hearts and added stitching and ribbon.
The squigglefly challenge is anything goes.
I am uploading my card early as I have my son's wedding to get ready for. I will use the rest of the week to prepare for it.
My apologies to Tater, she hates pink and has to wear anti-pink goggles when looking at pink.

Holy tea cups Shirt! This is drop-dead gorgeous! Stitchin' and ever'thang. Love-love-love your image and the most girlie-delish way of dressing it up. Your roses are so defined. That string of pearls is wonderful. If there was a SUPER Fav gallery, you'd be in it! LYMI
