Pool Party Thoughts

A dear friend of mine is recovering from knee surgery (Hi Linda!), and here is one of the cards I made for her. A Hostess Club member saw it and wanted to make it in class so we did it there too. (Hi Wanda!).


I cased this card from another demo, and I apologize that I've lost the info. If this is your card, please let me know so I can give you the credit!

The card is easy, but intricate.


The paper piercing gives is a lot of detail, along with the two embossed designs.


When I saw the original card it was the first time I noticed these flowers - I couldn't figure out where they came from (even thought they might be contraband!!) But no, they are from our Blossom Party Originals Die! So I immediately ordered it, and have been it for flowers ever since. And anyone who knows Linda knows there has to be bling!! ;)


Finally after bling and embossing and paper piercing and die cuts we have a button and ribbon - these are from the Sale-a-bration packs.(Sorry, we can't get them anymore). And because I'm not good at getting twine through little button holes I used my white gel marker. Unless it's magnified - like in this photo - you don't notice it's not real!


 Inside I added two more butterflies with the sentiment.
