LOTV - It Is Not In The Stars...But In Ourselves... image courtesy us-days.com

Today's card is a summery-soft and shabby card with an inspirational sentiment as its focus (and I thought it was a fun fit for the history of today). I used a dark orchid background paper from LOTV's Promises Solids paper pad, topped it with three softer-toned papers from the Timeless Victorian pad, and added a sentiment from Set 63, Quotables/Go For It as the focal point... Here are a few close-ups, starting with the cheesecloth peeking out of the lower corner... The rose at the center of the floral cluster was made using Spellbinders' Rose Creations dies and white cardstock, sprayed with a mist made of Weathered Wood Distress Ink refill and distilled water... The jeweled butterfly used to be a brad, until it met with my wire cutters... :) Patterned papers:  LOTV Promises Solids (background purple);  Timeless Victorian (all others)
Stamps:   LOTV Set 63, Quotables/Go For It
Dies:   Spellbinders Labels Two, and Rose Creations;   Poppy Stamps Massa Leaf Background
Punch:   Martha Stewart Medium Branch
Flowers:   Wild Orchid Crafts          Pearls:   Recollections
Jeweled butterfly:   Creative Imaginations          Clay corner:   Martha Stewart mold and air-dry clay
Miscellaneous:   cheesecloth, white twine

Thank you for taking the time to leave me a comment - I appreciate it! (Click on my full profile for my email link - thank you!) for taking the time to visit. "My Little Korner" is my corner craftroom, the only room in the house that's never allowed to be tidy, lest it stifle the creative process (are you liking that excuse? LOL) Cardmaking is my latest crafty passion, so most of what you find here will reflect that. But now and then a few of my other craft projects may sneak in. Enjoy! This is a personal blog and is written and edited by me. I do receive free product from time to time, as well as paid compensation from some companies for work I may do for them. However, I am not paid to provide opinions on products, services, or other websites. I do not accept any form of cash advertising, sponsorship, or paid topic insertions. The views and opinions I express on this blog are my own and based solely on my own experiences, so if I recommend a product or service, it's because I've used it and liked it, and hope that you might, too!
