CSS Alumni Blog Hop Sept 9/11

[Betty Neville]

Hi Everyone!

Welcome to another fun blog hop being hosted by members of StampTV's  Center Stage Alumni! Since I am first on the list today, you should have arrived from the Stamptv forum. This time, we have an inspiration challenge for you.  We were to make a card or project based on this bedroom photo from Pier 1 Imports:

 

Here is what I came up with:

 

I used Theresa's awesome set "Vogue Vases".  Card stock is GKD's 'Ocean Mist' and 

'Sweet Mango'. Special thanks to my StampTV friend, Susan Sieracki, for inspiring me to use embossing powder on my vase!  Thanks for looking!

 

Next up is the super talented Carlo Suto at http://carlasstampingspot.blogspot.com/2011/09/stamptv-css-alumni-b...

I really like the flowers. The embossing powder on the vase jazzes everything up.
