Antique Sheet Music & Flourishes

12 May 2010

Thank You So Much

Just a quick one for the Color Q Challenge #32.  I used a sketch from Card Positioning Systems.  It came together quickly and I was loving the leaves which I have seen on so many cards.  Since I do not have that punch (I think it must be a punch), I cut my own.  I also had to use some initiative on those colors.  Stampin Up is not available in South Africa and I really wish they were.  Anyway, here is what I came up with:
PS:  I have to admit to actually cutting up a full sheet of 12 x 12" last night to make this so I guess I will no longer be able to insist that I am not really a "card maker"!

  3. That is a beautiful card, Samantha. I love the medallions/flowers. I also don't have a die cut machine, only a couple of small punches.
