I Wish You Peace

The Gina K Design Team is busy with another hop - this time featuring the wonderful images from Nina Brackett's set Vintage Borders. What fun I had with the card I created for you today. I stamped the text image onto Gina's new Tan Leather cardstock and rounded the corners. The other end of this panel was combined with the scalloped image that I stamped onto Pure Luxury White using Angel Pink Memento ink. For a little added interest, I stitched a small piece of pink ric-rak along side the edge.

The tree topiary is from another set from Nina, Lord of the Season. I stamped it three times - once onto the white cardstock, another on the pink patterned paper and once more on the Tan Leather; cutting and attaching each piece with mini pop dots. I added some Liquid Pearls for ornaments to the tree and found a sparklie pink star in my stash that I thought would look nice on my pink tree.

I had great fun embellishing my buttons by using other images from the set and stamping on the buttons using Stazon Timber Brown ink. There are many images in this set that work well for small embellishments. Can't you just imagine how cute these images would look on Gina's white flowers?
