My Time Made Easy Pretty Patterns #11!

Welcome to this week's edition of the My Time Made Easy Pretty Patterns #11 Challenge!

I loved working with this sketch ... this card came together so effortlessly!

I used pretty papers from the Fresh Cut Expressions Collection #1 and A Loving Heart Collection.  I love the soft gingham and floral pattern from the Fresh Cut Expressions piece and my fancy script on the plum A Loving Heart paper is so beautiful!  I attempted to make a hydrangea cupcake ... pleted the Kraft cardstock and then embossed with polka dots to resemble a cupcake liner ... but my little bob looks more like a flower basket.  Still really dimensional and pretty IRL!  The hydrangea is my all-time FAV flower!  I have about 25 bushes planted around my yard and they are already blooming with lovely snowball blossoms of gorgeous shades of pinks, crimsons, blues, fushias, lilacs, plums and purples!  The only color I don't have in my yard is white ... I like colors to go with my {pink} Victorian home!!!

The beautiful sentiment is from the Chase Your Dreams stamp set ... I printed it out and die cut with the Labels 20 die from Spellbinders.  I added a pretty paper doilie inked with twill paint, some bling-y plum colored rhinestones and a bit of Lilac Lace Shabby Vintage Seam Binding from my Etsy Shop!

So soft ... so sweet ... so fun to make!
