Oh what a week. Between a pinched nerve and a stomach bug I have not been up to snuff at all. Hope all of you are in much better shape.
Our sweet Franz is bringing us a theme of "Pastels" for the new challenge at Mo's Digital Pencil. I have to admit at first I wasn't concerned, but as I tried to put the card together I began to panic. Nothing seemed to work. The only thing I liked was the colored baby image. There are three layers of paper piecing on that umbrella cause I kept changing my mind. LOL I finally just grabbed several My Mind's Eye papers in soft pinks and here we are. I cut a length of pink tulle and sewed it through the center for gathering to add on top of the Prima flower. I know it's rather CAS, but honestly I have not been in a very crafty mood and all the bells and whistles ideas just didn't come into play.
