This latest release is just SO gorgeous! I inked up Inspire Hope today for a card that hopefully would lift the spirits of someone going through Breast Cancer treatment. I sponged the focal layer and stamped the gorgeous frame and sentiment with various neutrals. I sponged some scrap cardstock with the same color, cut the new Ribbon die, then covered it with stickles and glossy accents.
Sprightly Sprigs cut from heavy vellum frame the piece, and the flags were cut with the Banner Bundle. Finally I finished with some sequins from the new Pink Sparkle Sequin Mix.
It's time to hop on over and visit with Maureen now!
