Muse Challenge #8

Good Morning,

Another week and another Muse Card Challenge and this week's Muse card is by the very talented Therese Calvird.  For some reason Therese's card inspired me to create a totally different style of card than what I normally make.  But that is what is so great about challenges, getting to do something new and unexpected.


Supplies Used:
MME - Honeycake DP
Stampin Up - Fabulous Florets
Stampin Up - Sentiment
Pearls from my stash
Paper Piercing by my sewing machine
The edges of the paper was distressed using decorative scissors  however I should have a distress tool with me soon so it should make the job a bit easier.

Muse Card by Therese Calvird

The inspiration I took from Therese's card was the patterened paper, I knew I had something similar in my stash somewhere.  The colour of flowers is similar, however that is just where my card took me.

Thanks for visiting

    I love your Muse card-it may be different but it looks great. I really like the distress look at the edge-I need to get one of those tools too!

    It's one of the joys of this challenge isn't it ... seeing how everyone is inspired differently by the same card! This is lovely, Gillian, so beautifully soft and feminine! Anita :)
