IBSIC #11 and Mojo Monday #244





Good afternoon, blogger friends and a happy Monday to everyone.  Today I thought the Mojo Monday Sketch 244 would go perfectly with the Inspired by Stamping Inspiration Challenge #11.  I started with a vanilla card stock base and added some gorgeous My Mind's Eye, Market Street "Lovely" Shabby Chic paper.  I absolutely love this glittery paper!  I matted the two layers with some SU blushing bride and added crochet trim to each section, including the bow.  My sentiment came from IBS's All Year Wishes 1 and so did the little pink rose.  I added a little blushing bride ink to the white flower which I got at Michael's.

Leaving in one week for Mississippi so don't know if I'll get in another challenge or not.  Looking forward to my newest grandson's arrival! If I don't make next week's challenge, I will start again when I get back home in a few weeks.  Thanks for stopping by:  I love reading your comments.
