Hallo,
Welcome to another fun Stamp TV CSS Alumni blog hop. This time we have a great inspiration photo (first one :) to work with.
If you are following along the hop then you should have come to me from Sharri - and I am sure she had sweet stuff for you!!!
Remember to leave lots of sweet comments laong the way as we will be drawing for a HUGE grab bag of Gina K stamps from all those who comment.
Personally I loved this photo - so much to chose from!!!! I first spotted the pillow and the big vase both with old fashioned redwork on them (not sure if that is what its called....) and then I liked the quilt and the vase of flowers.....
For the redwork I used neenah desert storm with the lace doilly from 'Nana's Needlework' stamped onit in red for a background. (I had intended a 4X6 card but it kinda grew....)
Next I used the quilt and shelf - also from the same set -colored with copics and cut out with a Spellbinders label die.
Last is my vase of flowers - the vase is from Melanie's 'Buds and vases' and the flowers from Gina's 'By your side' - also colored with copics.
As I said my card grew to 5X7 because I wanted more of my quilt to show and I didn't want to cut off any of my vase and flowers - so I just made the card bigger :). I couldn't decide what phrase to use so I added a row of pearls instead and some to the corners too.
All for the evening - the teenagers are both out and about this friday evening and the DH is watching
Nascar, so for me its either craft room, blog surfing or the couch with my kindle :) - or as the case may be it will probably be a bit of all of the above :).
Have a great weekend!!!!
Tera

beautiful. I have been thinking about getting the stamp set with the quilt rack. I do believe you made my mind up for me!!!! I love the soft looking colors on here along with the pearls. Makes for a very classy and lovely card.
Love the coloring in the flowers. Also the use of the pearls...
I would have had to go with a bigger card too as I wouldn't have wanted to comprise any of your pieces. It's a lovely card and perfect for nearly any occasion.
Very nicely done..I love the country feel you projected with all the neat elements used. It is truly an inspiration!

Hi, Tera,
Wow, the coloring of your flowers floors me! They are exquisite! And you nailed the color of the doilies, matching to the bricks in the picture. And the pearls! Luv how you left one all by itself, all alone, over on the right. All of it grabs the viewer!
Lovely card--especially like the quilt and shelf. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Tera,
Love the colour scheme.
Lovely design Tera and love the quilt and flowers!!
I love the background paper! It looks like you may have used a stamp to do this--very pretty! Love the shelf--now I need one! Bette
Beautiful! All the details so intricately incorporated!
Now I'll have to check out all my stamps to see which ones will make backgrounds as pretty as yours- great idea!
Happy Mother's Day, Tera!!! Love the vase of flowers!! Gorgeous!!
What a fun card!
Lovely card with the doily background as well as all the other elements.
I like to read the process taken - thanks for sharing that and the lovely result.
I love quilts and the doily background sets it off perfectly.
Beautiful card, love the doily background and the coloring of your flowers - really stunning.
Lovely card!
Just love your card. The use of the doily stamp on the background just gave me another way to use that beautiful stamp and the quilt stamp which I don't think I have ever used. Beautiful work on this card.
I love the doily print dp with the vase of flowers; a beautiful way to pick up the softer design elements.
I liked the doily stamp for the background, the quilt, the flowers, the embellishments - just Everything!
Love how you have incorporated so many elements of the picture without overcrowding the card. The flowers are so pretty.
