A tiny seed... - Flourishes December Sneak, Day Two



Are you ready for another one of Marcella Hawley's gorgeous fruit sets? OMGosh! She's done it again! This set is called Pears--and that pretty much says it all.


For my card today, I stamped the image on Classic White card stock and colored it with these Copic collections





After I finished coloring and cut it to size, I sponged around the edges with Antique Linen Distress Ink and popped it up on foam dots. I'm using this ribbon from the Flourishes store, and my border was cut with the Classic Triple Scallop Edgeabilities dies. And, I added a little tag using another image from the set--I do declare, this could pass for Cloisonne unless you looked REALLY close ;-)

Here's the inside with another image (this is the one I used for the tag) and a sentiment. 


And here's a close up of the sweet little tag.


Now, be sure to check out what the rest of the design team has for you today...
