Hi there! I made this card for my MIL who is celebrating her birthday today. My boys call her Nana, so I thought this was the perfect set to use for her card. I created using my friend
Nina's new sets for
Gina K. Designs called
Nana's Needlework and
Nana's Needlework Sentiments. I have had these sets for a little while now as Nina had asked me a few weeks ago if I would be one of her Designing Friends for this release. Of course I said yes, yes, a thousand times yes. I love Nina's designs and she had given me a couple of hints that there was a doily and some needlework, the ideas started flowing. For this card, I started with a base of PL Kraft cardstock and then layered with some PL Cream and print cardstock from the
Websters Pages Home for the Holidays/Winters Wings Petite Paper Pack. The doily was stamped three times, once with Memento Rich Cocoa ink, once with Versamagic Pink Petunia and once with Distress Bundled Sage. I cut out the different sections and layered it up. I then added some buttons, rhinestones and ribbon to finish it off.
I am going to enter this card in the
Moxie Fab Diggin' on Doilies challenge. Keep your fingers crossed!
Tip: The ribbon I used was only 5/8" wide so I cut it down the middle and then adhered it back to the sentiment panel with Scor-tape.
Hugs,
