Happy Flowers in Smoothie




I decided to make a four card Inspirational Set for my Etsy Shop. This is the third of the set. The first is the post right before this one and the second one is here. The fourth may be posted tomorrow.  My poor Etsy shop is really lacking new cards.Why is it that the older I get, the less I get done.

This card uses the retired Dottie for you paper pack. I love the bright colored dot papers. It's so Springy looking and I sure need this right now with the COLD weather we are still having.

The Happy Flowers are pre-colored gorgeous flowers that come in an array of different colors or as a digi for you to color yourself. 

The Bakers Twine is from the Paradise collection and the sparkles are the Pink Glitter Gems

I decided to try something different for the Hand Stitching on this card. I used the chain stitch. It was very time consuming, but I loved doing it. I matched the embroidery floss up to the Topiary cardstock I used.

your comment about getting less done reminds me of something I saw on a sign at an antique store - "The hurrier I go the behinder I get"

I do love the bright colors in your card. Very spring like and charming!
