Hello Everyone! This week at CR84FN63 we are playing with the colors Denim, Tan, and Brown. There's also a Design Team call so go to the CR84FN site to read all about it!
I LOVED creating with this week's colors! Part of my inspiration came from the diamond pattern in the dress. Here's a close up of the pattern:
And here's my entire card. That sweet image is from Melissa Francis paper. I cut it out with a heart punch and cut pieces of flowers to make a bouquet in here basket, adding crystal effects for flower centers. I also added the doily which I ran through my crimper for dimension.

I cut out the brown frame background from some SU paper I had. Some belvet brown scalloped ribbon, some silk ribbon, some twine, and a little stitching tied it all together! LOL!
This card is on it's way to my friends who just bought a house on the beach on St. George Island, FL. I bought them the pillow below and in thecard told them I couldn't wait to come stay at their house!
Now check out what the other DT members listed in my sidebar have made to inspire you! Hope to see you in our gallery!
