This week's colors at CR84FN19 inspired me to create this pretty little jewel for our very own Lisa Somerville's Birthday! I hope you like it, Lisa, and I hope you have a very special day that's All About YOU!
If the color graphic isn't enough inspiration, go check out the other cards from the CR84FN Design Team listed in the sidebar as well as the FAB card by our March Guest Designer - Deb Hickman! You will definitely want to make something, too!!!
I pulled out a BossCut die I had never used before. I used a shimmery steel blue paper for the Dove, mounted it on a brushed steel silver doily, and then used a shimmery aqua for the background.
I added some bling for the bird's eye and placed some additional gems in the scroll of the Dove. I also brushed the top of the bird and scroll with silver cat's eye ink.If the color graphic isn't enough inspiration, go check out the other cards from the CR84FN Design Team listed in the sidebar as well as the FAB card by our March Guest Designer - Deb Hickman!

Can you see the FAB brads on my Birthday banner? They are a gift from my FAB blog friend, Ruby 2 Shoes, and they are called Legless Brads made in the U.K. What a treat it was to get these from her, especially since the color is so perfect for my card!! LOL!
In this last picture, you can see that FAB text from my Hero Arts stamp. This is one of my FAVS!
So I hope you like my card and are inspired to play with us!
