CC228, Mojo96 Eastern Influences

Hello eveyone!!!

I made this card for the CC228 - Pretty in Pink, Really Rust and Not Quite Navy.

The layout is from the Mojo96 Sketch and I finally had a chance to ink up my beautiful Eastern Influence Set.

As you can tell I focused more on the *blue and pink color* - but there is some Really Rust on the stem!!!

I also used some Angel Wings Shimmerz on the flower itself.

Would you like to win a jar of the Angel Wings Shimmerz??? Check out the post right here!!!

Some of you have asked me how I tie my bows....I have to admit that I'm a terrible bow maker!!! But I was saved by the awesome Bow Easy.

Sharon Johnson is selling and showing it on her blog!!! It is really the best product for bow making!!!

Here is a close up to see how pretty the Shimmerz looks on the image!!!

Thank you for stopping by!!!
