Take a good look at this card because there is something on there that you may not see from me again in a LONG time....gold glittered ribbon. I am so NOT a fan of anything gold but I have to grudgingly admit that it really does look awesome on this Valentine card that I made for my nearly 7 year old granddaughter. I took my inspiration for the colors from the January mood board over at the Butterfly Reflections Ink blog:
Don't you just love those colors? They look so good together and I thought they would be perfect for this card for Abby. A couple of years ago all she wanted for Christmas were "rock star" clothes...lol. Last month for Christmas Dave and I gave her a Hello Kitty karaoke machine so she can practice her rock star singing. I think she is driving my son and daughter-in-law crazy with it....ha ha.
I used this sketch from My Favorite Things and am linking it up to their Wednesday challenge:
I am also linking this up over at Simon Says Stamp's Wednesday Have a Heart challenge
Oh, I sooo wish it was not Sunday night. My work week starts in less than 11 hours. I wish I could just stay home tomorrow and craft all day but retirement is still 5 years away. Have a wonderful week.

Rockin card! That Lawn Fawn paper pad is my FAVORITE. I need to buy a few more. I use those simple, colorful patterns a lot in my PL.
ReplyDeleteLove this card. I also am not a fan of gold... but all I hear from CHA this year is that everything was gold.. so..... may have to give it a go. You sure rocked on this card. Abby is going to love it. Love that guitar! And the staging with the picks... Adorable!

Oh I love this, Sandi! I had to enlarge it to see the details and the gold ink on the oval looks awesome!! The ribbon is the perfect touch. LOL on the karaoke machine!! It's a rule that grandparents and aunts are allowed to send the kids all kinds of noisy toys :-)
