Still somewhat recovering from holidays, but how could I miss such a meaningful Destination Station for TPT this week. I think I included some of the requisites - flowers, bling, lace, glitter. Didn't manage the candy stripes or that beautiful blue on the teapot, but I loved the pink flowers and worked with those.
Card base is 5 3/4" square with a little bit trimmed off the bottom.
Papers are My Mind's Eye Bloom and Grow. The wooden flourish is from Kaiser. The flowers from Friendship Blooms were stamped with yellow ink on glossy card and embossed with Iridescent Ice. Then I sponged with Worn Lipstick, and a streak of Dusty Concord in the centres of the petals. Doodlebug bling for the flower centres, then I curled them slightly and popped them up on foam. The sentiment is Hero Arts, stamped with Dusty Concord and then gone over with a clear Sakura Stardust pen. I added tiny gems to the butterfly after embossing with Swiss Dots.
