IC452 ~ Peach Blossom

Photo Details

Poster: sistersandie

What a fabulous shabby Pinterest site today - I was spoilt for choice, thanks Audrie! I drooled over the bed linen of course, but stretched myself and my Cricut. I chose this for my inspiration http://www.pinterest.com/pin/131026670383433575/
I cut and pasted a square 16 times on my Cricut Design Studio to make the window frame. I die cut branches and snipped them to fit in the vase and loaded them with tiny blossoms. I sponged the vase a little with a very old peach ink.... now what can I do with 16 little squares .....

I REALLY, REALLY love this idea of having the whole card as a picture window....I wish there was a die like this! I have a Cricut, but it broke down! :( Absolutely and utterly lovely, Sandie!

Wow! This is so pretty! You captured the feel of the whole site in one card. Love the crisp and very shabby chic feel of your beautiful card. Hugz!

your card really fits the inspiration well. I love the simplicity of it, and the hints of color are perfect. The pearl flower centers are just the right touch, too.

You could use the cut-outs to do a reverse version of it - pop the squares off of the base and attach your focal point to them.
