Grandma Lott recently celebrated a milestone! She turned 80 years old! To honor her, I created a special card that would capture her tenured beauty. This card is vintage pink and gold themed.
To create this card I used the Sew Ribbon tool by We are Sew Easy to punch holes on the pink shimmery card stock, looped pink ribbon through and layered the paper on the card. I used some glittery foam letters and used my shimmery gold gel pen to tie in the card stock color. I also found a sticker I had left over from a previous scrapbooking project and placed it, and wrote over it with pink to tie all the colors together.
All together, using what I had, I was able to create a simply beautiful card for a very special lady! Sometimes it is better to reuse and recycle then purchase new craft supplies. It allows for more creativity and thinking out of the box. The recipient will appreciate the time spent and the thoughtful labor. ^_^
Happy Crafting!!
