Hello Blogger Friends! Happy day before Mother's Day! I just finished the card for the Merry Monday #61 Challenge. Did you ever have an idea for a card while you were trying to go to sleep? That's where the idea came for this one. I stamped part of Penny Black's Winter berries stamp with silver ink and embossed it in silver on this gold shimmer paper. The sentiment came from a TPC set I have. I layered the gold on some silver glitter paper, and I layered that on some night of navy paper. Simple, but elegant, and it is much prettier in person because it sparkles!
My other two pictures are from a day trip Jim and I took to Holland, Michigan this week. Tulip Time is in full swing there, and the tulips were gorgeous. These pictures were taken at Windmill Gardens. Don't you just love the pink tulips?
Thanks for stopping by. I love reading your comments.
Love your card! The colors, the stamped image. Just perfect. So glad you could join us at Merry Monday.

ReplyDeleteLove the tulips! We've still got a few weeks here in southcentral Alaska before anything blooms. With most of our snow melted it looks like fall around here still :)
