Hi everyone!!!!I hope you are ready for another "Inspirational" hop from the Center Stage Spotlight Alumni!
If you have arrived from JOY'S BLOG, you are in the right place. If you'd like to start at the beginning, click HERE.
Make sure to leave a comment as you hop along because on Tuesday morning (April 12th), we will randomly choose one of the comments from all the blogs and the lucky person will get a stamp set of their choice valued up to $24.95!
This is an Inspiration challenge, and we were to create a card or project based on one of the cookies pictured in the following photo from the Better Bit Butter (http://www.betterbitofbutter.com/index.htm) site.
Premier 2 is the one that got my attention right away! I used the lovely bird image from the new StampTV kit called "Spring Silhouettes".
I rolled some roses and added them to the Spellbinders Lotus die cut, and some white sprigs and leaves, made with MS punches. As you can see, I used the piece of the lotus cut off from the card front to decorate the inside on my card.
I think this will make a perfect card for a wedding!
Thank you so much for hopping along with us and now it's time for you to hop over to Kay's blog, and I am sure you will be awed by her talent!

Oh I'm so glad you used this cookie for inspiration, I just loved the white elegance of it and was hoping it would be used. Your card is stunning, using the cut off piece of the die cut for the inside is a great idea. I wouldn't have thought to use that MS punch (I have it) to tuck in a few leaves, but it just looks like it belongs, thanks for the idea. Beautiful card!
