CLP4 (Inger Harding image)

Happy Friday Everyone!
Hopefully you are all getting ready for a fun weekend and looking forward to tomorrow being World Card Making Day!! Do you have any special plans for this? I'd love to hear about them!
I'm actually not going to be able to participate in anything as we are off for a weekend on our boat....it's been a while since we went out so are looking forward to getting off our property and being out on the ocean! Just hope the weather will cooperate!

OK., onto today's card. This one I made for CLP4 over at Chelsea's blog. I used another image from the talented Inger Harding, colored in prismacolored pencils and OMS then chalked the edges. I stitched the edges of the card using red metallic thread, added several different ribbons, popped the image out using foam squares and added the flowers and leaves to the corners (this wasn't on the sketch, but I liked the look). The Prima embossed flowers are from one of my DT sisters Sue McMahon's store....please see my side bar for McMahon Five Designs store. The leaves and edging were made using Martha Stewart punches, ribbons and gems are from Michael's and JoAnn's.
I would love to hear what you think!
Hugs for a lovely weekend!
