Simple Rose Card

Here's another card I created using the Floral Lane collection from Pebbles...what a fabulous collection!
There are so many great colors in the collection and great patterns...of course there are plenty of fun florals, but also great basic patterns like this ledger print:


I added some washi tape, lace, a few simple flourish pieces, some burlap string, and topped it off with a ribbon rose.


Thanks for stopping by today - have a fabulous day!

Floral Lane

This card uses papers from the fabulous Pebbles, Inc. collection - Floral Lane.
I wanted to mimic the fun flowers on the "A Little Hello" paper, so I used the die cut doily and rose ribbon to continue the look.


The rose ribbon was misted with Perfect Pearls mist to give it a little hint of color (it was originally an ivory color).
And of course I had to top it all off with some Maya Road stick pins and twine from The Twinery!


Have a wonderful day!

Patterned Paper: Pebbles (Floral Lane);

I just can't stop playing with the new Buttercream twine from The Twinery!
Here's another card I created (paired with papers from the Splendid collection from Authentique):


To add a little something extra I punched out some stars from plastic packaging. (I chose stars because of the stars that are on the bingo card piece of patterned paper.) I think it adds a fun touch without overtaking the card.
