Blooming Lovely

I’ve another quick sneak peek today, famous last words about getting loads done last night, I went to bed with another migraine instead.  That’s the third in a week and two ocular migraines as well, I am totally and utterly fed up with them.

Anyhow, enough moaning, on to my sneak peek – Blooming Lovely from the new Lili of the Valley release that goes on sale on the 25th.

I love these Echo Park papers – these are from the Echo Park Mini Theme Kit – Happy Spring.  Teamed with some teal Bazzill cardstock which just seems to make everything pop.

I stamped the accompanying sentiment and cut out into an oval shape to fit on the Spellbinders labels die.  The little border die is Crealies .

Flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts: Chrysanthemum, 25mm hybrid tea rose, 15mm roses.  The little silver pearls are from my very old stash and I pulled the centre out of the Chrysanth and popped a big pearl brad in the centre.

Keep an eye on the Ideas to Inspire blog as the DT will be updating it daily with new sneak peeks.

    I've had migranes and they are so dibillitating. It's TIME to back off of all deadlines and get some relaxation. Put your feet up and do only things that comfort you. All of us want only the best for you, so do it, please!! Take a break and heal yourself...

    another beauty of a card. I can feel your pain re: migraines. Mine sometimes are helped by Aleve, or Sinus pills like DayQuil. Mine always show up on the right side, under my cheek and eye... just nauseating pain... Try a heating pad on the pain, too, or a hot, hot shower. Or a Dr. Pepper... hope it goes away soon...
