The Shabby Tea Room - Guest Designing

Happy Monday!

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend? I had to work on Saturday, but had the chance to relax and hang out with my gang all Sunday! It's also College Volleyball season again, so we had the pleasure of watching a few home games this weekend and I'm so happy to tell you that our GSU team won both games on Saturday...yeah....GO EAGLES!!!

Today, I'm super excited to share a card I made for this weeks The Shabby Tea Room Challenge #132. The fabulous TSTR Design Team has asked me to Guest Design and of course I couldn't resist to say YES!!! Ladies, thank you so much for having me!!!



The theme this week is *PRETTY PARTY* – create a card or project inspired by the photo USING PINK AND GREEN WITH FLOWERS!



I decided to use my favorite Flourishes Country Charm Labels Set. The sentiment in the center is from the beautiful Wedded Bliss Set. Both of the images were inked in Memento Tuxedo Black onto the Flourishes Classic White CS. The card base was created with the Spellbinder Romantic Rectangles Die. Next I added the Design Paper and created some *faux stitching* and connected the dots with a White Gel Pen. The framed sentiment was placed onto the Spellbinder Labels Twenty Five Die. Next I embellished the rest of my card with some Baby Pink Satin Ribbon, Kaiser Pearls, Flowers, Leaves, Antique Brad and some Pink Flourishes.

Please take the time to hop on over to The Shabby Tea Room Blog to see all of the Design Teams creations as well as all the details on how you can play along this week!!!

Thank you for stopping by and I'll be back with a new card for the Color Q tomorrow!

See ya then,

                                                                  Hugs, ~Silke~
