Bloom and Grow - Grazia Salvo Women of Flowers Digi

 Have confidence that if you have done a little thing well, 
you can do a bigger thing well, too.   David Storey




Hey there from Nannyland,

I've just returned from an absolutely heavenly trip to the picturesque Monterey Peninsula to visit my daughter and I'm feeling refreshed and ready for a little blissful coloring time in Nannyland.  I chose this gorgeous  Grazia Salvo Women of Flowers digi to create a feminine card for a May birthday.  While shopping with my hubby at Tuesday Morning recently, I unexpectedly spotted a beautiful 5 x 7 Spellbinders die set.  Score!  I knew the lacy design would make a gorgeous background for my image and was thrilled that it fit her perfectly. I cut it out in white shimmer card stock, edged it with a gold leafing pen, then added gold peel off stickers for a little extra metallic detail. 


I used  Cricut writing and cutting features to create the sentiment tag in Design Space. A couple of handmade Heartfelt Creations blooms add texture and dimension to my bouquet.

Grazia Salvo digi, Copic Markers, Spellbinders frame dies, 
Elizabeth Crafts peel off stickers; Heartfelt Creation stamps,
dies, mold; gold leafing pen

It's always a treat to surround myself with Copics and get lost in a quiet world of coloring and imagination. Now that I'm all centered and relaxed, I'm ready for my next summer escapade!
