Timeless Tuesday #131

Over on the Flourishes blog, they gave us a recipe to use for this week's Timeless Tuesday challenge. We're to use the color pink, one button, ribbon and lace. I looked at all the examples from the blog team members and they are all gorgeous! Such talent over there! This is my first time entering a card in this challenge and here is what I came up with.


I colored the pretty Primrose stamp from Flourishes with Copics, after stamping it onto an oval diecut that was distressed with Antique Linen distress ink. I then over-stamped with Hero Arts La Letter in Vintage Photo ink. Both patterned papers are from a 6x6 Authentique paper pad called, Splendid, which was a gift from my sweet friend, Tiffany. I layered the Hero Arts Lace on top of a vivid pink, satin ribbon. The sentiment is also from Flourishes and I added a sweet, heart-shaped button to finish the recipe.

I hope you're having a good week! Thanks so much for stopping by! :)
