Hello again! Welcome back! It's Day 2 of The Craft's Meow March 2012 Release Previews. Today we're introducing Cherished by Nina Brackett. It's a gorgeously graphic set with beautiful sentiments.

Here's our inspiration photo.

 

Here's my card for the preview and inspiration challenge.

I stamped the main image on vintage cardstock and distressed the edges with ink. It's such a beautiful and intricate background. I love it. The lace trim is from M&J Trimming. The purple ribbon was just a strip I found in my ribbon drawer. I can't remember where I bought it from...probably from Joann's.

I stamped the flowers onto a purple card stock. I did this several times and hand cut some of the blooms. Then I layered the hand cut ones over the bunch with foam tape. I also placed some silver pearls on the flowers to break the solid color.

I made a banner for part of the sentiment. Then placed the rest on a label from Timeless Tags. I am loving the colors in this card. I had such a great time making it. Even though it was a little tedious cutting the flowers. lol! When it comes out beautiful in the end...to me...it's worth all the time spent hand cutting. :)

That's it for me today! I have more to come tomorrow! Join our challenge and win some prizes! You can also leave a comment on the TCM blog to win. Now go and hop on over to the other TCM girls' blogs. Don't forget to leave them messages! :)
