Shabby Tearoom HFC posies

Shabby-posies-HFC



Hello everyone! My family has left and I'm trying to catch up with my crafting and blogging! While I have a ton of things I "should" be doing, I just had to have a little fun playing in a couple challenges first! I wanted to play in this week's Shabby Tearoom Challenge which was a color challenge as well as to use classic patterns of gingham or polka dot patterns.


 I stamped my image from Heartfelt Creations HCPC3306 Posy Patch Garden Delights, and I used the HCD701 Posy Patch Diecuts to cut a few of the small posies to pop up. The sentiment is Our Daily Bread designs Mini Tags 3 .  My designer paper is Melody Ross Homespun Chic and Heidi Grace Ascent. The circle element behind my cut out image is Nellie's Die Cut, and then I layered on the inside portion of a Cheery Lynn Designs Canadian Kaleidoscope Doily which I cut out to just use the inside part to fit over the green layer. The framing behind the sentiment is a Nellie's Multi Die small. I colored the image with Copics and added some red gingham ribbon from my stash. This was a fun one to help me get back some mojo after running around with my grandkids and daughter all last week.


I am also entering this in the following challenges:
Hooked on Crafts - Anything goes,  Karens Doodles  Flower power, Make it Monday - Anything Goes, Corrosive Challenges -  Ribbons and Bows, Cupcake Inspirations - Inspirational Photo, Crafts 4 Eternity Recipe Challenge -  Use embellishments starting with "R" (ribbon), Inspire Me Fridays - Always anything goes, Stamp Something - Pretty papers 

Thanks for taking a look and I love knowing you were here!
Hugs,

  13. Hello Grace,
    I'm so glad I found you on Shabby Tea Room. I just entered for the first time on this site. The inspiration picture was so luscious!! I too, am a child of God. I get to minister with my crafts and cards thru my women's Bible Study. (Withintheword.com) Like you say, it's a craft that focuses on others.
    Your cards are lovely and now I look forward to coming to your site each day.
    Would love for you to visit my blog sometime and sign my guest book too.

  30. Dear Grace,

    This is such a lovely card! I love the image with the different colored flowers. The sheet of dp in the bg with the flowers is perfect for this. I love the gingham paper, and that wonderful ribbon. The paper doily is beautiful!!! This is so pretty! I just love it!

    One question- What makes something Shabby? Or Shabby-Chic? I do not know what that refers to...if you could explain it, I'd be grateful!
