♥ A Monochromatic Shabby Chic Card ♥

Hi everyone! Just stopping in to share a card I made for 2 awesome challenge blogs. The Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge Blog and the Let's Get Shabby Challenge Blog. Both of their challenges this week is to make a card using only one color. So FUN and challenging!


I used some gorgeous papers by Prima from their Printery line. I also used some Prima lace trim, punched butterflies, Liquid Pearls, lace, seam binding, a chipboard heart, paint, a button, glitter and the "beautiful" is from the Princess Blush stamp set by My Mind's Eye.



I hope you all have a "beautiful" day! Thanks for stopping by my little blog! I really appreciate it!

Hugs and lottsa love...

    Wow Meslissa. This card is INCREDIBLE. I nearly go as far as to say its one of my favourites of yours....and I love eveything you make! Absolutely stunning, from the papers to the lace and flower. I really must get the prima printery papers. I tried getting them at the Craft Fair here in Northern Ireland a couple of weeks ago but it was all gone. So I will have to get it elsewhere. Im really in love with this card, its truly beautiful. Youre a very talented lady. Lee xx
