One More Before and After


It's getting late but a few posts back I promised to show you one more before and after. I had posted this card on the Splitcoast gallery for the 100MFTSKETCHES Challenge and thought I had finished it but after I posted it I thought it looked kind of blah and decided to go back to it and do something to jazz it up a little. For this card I added some stickles to the chamomile flowers and the Fleur de Lis on the pot. Under the word "Chamomile" I put three teeny weeny Recollections Rhinestone stickers and then in the corners of the top rectangle layer.
The papers are from DCWV "Nana's Nursery Baby Girl" pad. To echo the Fleur de Lis on the flower pot I used the EK Success border punch on the side of the striped paper.
I don't know if you'll agree with me or not but I think those simple little additions really make a difference.
Thanks for stopping by to visit. You all make my day!

  3. I agree with you what a difference a few "tweaks" made. I think it was so creative how you used the Fleur de lis on the flower pot. That is so clever and really looks great! Wonderful job! Best, Curt
