for IC13 inspiration from a pillow. This sort of evolved as I went along. I stamped & embossed flowers on the rose red, but I really didn't like the placement, so I cut them all out, did a few more & then arranged them on sage shadow instead. Then I thought it was too plain, so I added the circle of faux stitching & the scallops around the flowers. I punched a couple of circles from paper and went around them with the white gel pen (should have used card stock instead of paper) - some got a little messy. Added gold brads, then the word, then the red brads & finally the piercing around the outer edge. I like how it turned out, but it was definitely a process getting there.

Oh, my - fabulous! This is the second card from the inspiration challenge I saw just browsing the gallery. Now I have to go see what inspired these works of art.
