A Rosette 4 You
The Borderlines stamp set has a very pretty leaf border and I was thinking about how I could use it on a card. A scrap from the Spice Cake DSP pack was on my counter and immediately I thought that combining the two would make for a pretty card. I stamped a border on each side of Very Vanilla cardstock and added a strip of Spice Cake DSP in the center. Not right--needs a little trim so out comes the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border punch and some Pool Party cardstock. As I assemble the card I know this card calls for a rosette. I have made a couple rosettes in the past, but they are time consuming. Nonetheless I cut and scored a 1" x 12" strip of Pool Party DSP for the rosette, added a Soft Suede circle, a Pool Party printed brad and a little "4 You" tag. And here is my creation which I do think this is one of my prettier cards!
I am married (50 years now~~oh my!) and have two children:
Jen and Matt. Jen and her husband blessed us with a beautiful granddaughter who is now 19 years old. I am also a "grandma" to five dogs, 2 birds and more! My dog, Charlie, is our spoiled Shihtzu and I have a cute little parrotlet, Nipper, that is 8 years old.
