No Idols Here!

Good morning!! Just popping in quickly this morning . . busy day!! So how many of you out there submitted for the MFT Idol contest?? What a fun idea that was!! I wasn't sure I'd have time . . . but I was able to squeak out a card to enter. I have to say though, once I uploaded my card and checked out all the other entries, I knew I didn't have a prayer - WOWEE!! There was some out of this world work done for this contest - some amazingly talented stampers out there!! Go check out the gallery - seriously!!

Having said that, I still love my card - lol! I love the colors and the paper and I actually took a bit of time and watercolored the image (after reviewing Shannan's fab tips here!). I just love this e-Girl set, so appropriate!

Isn't that damask sofa just so chic?? hee hee! I added a little crocheted flower I made to a punch-out flower that coordinates with the paper line.

Cardstock: White, Ocean Tides (Papertrey Ink), Watercolor paper, Rose Red (SU!)
Patterned Paper: Bloom (My Mind's Eye)
Ink: Stazon
Accessories: Scor-pal, Ocean Tides ribbon (Papertrey Ink), Flower (My Mind's Eye), Aquapainter, Corner Rounder, Dimensionals

Off to get some housework done and then some planning time with Kim for Stamp New England - it's getting sooooo close! :)
