Last swap

Here's the last swap card I did. It's basically the same as the previous Peony Card I did, but that one used Pomegranate ink & paper and that was no longer current. So, I switched to the new Pink Pirouette with Pretty in Pink. The result was very soft and pretty!!!

Card base is Pretty in Pink, stamped in Pretty in Pink with the Tres Chic background. Green layer is Certainly Celery, as are the leaves. I used Whisper White to stamp the flower first layer in Pink Pirouette and second layer in Pretty in Pink. Leaves are Celery, stamping the first layer off once and second layer full strength. I did use the Stamp-a-ma-jig also to line everything up. A little more work-but worth it!! I sponged the edge of the white layer around the top in Pretty in Pink, & bottom in Certainly celery. The ribbon on this one is Pretty in Pink grosgrain, but I did some with White Taffeta and it worked quite well also. The Half-Pearl is from the Pretties Kit.

Thanks for stopping by! We're off to a county fair figure 8 race this evening. Great family fun! It will be our 3rd this week-guess we really like them! It's a nice cool day out too!

I hope to be back tomorrow with make-n-takes from convention, or something new! But I've got to take the boys school shopping as they start Thursday! I'll be back soon though!!
