Ironing things out


     Welcome to Bellarific Friday!  Last week Em gave us this awesome inspiration photo to work with for the Bellarific Friday challenge at Blogabella.  This is one of my favorite shades of blue so I've used that and added a frame ad the brick work embossing under the image.

inspiration 5-may-2

     I've used Stamping Bella's Uptown Girl "Lily Loves Laundry" for my card, or most of her anyway.


Copics Used:

duster Y32, Y35, Y38
ironing board Y11, Y21, BG72
iron C00, C0, C2, N1, N9


     Here's the inside of the card.  Not sure why it looks so bent.

  5. Wow! So elegant and stunning, and totally fun, too...all rolled up into one! Love your interpretation of that inspiration photo. The teal and white is stunning, and the touches of yellow you added to the image are the perfect accent. I adore that pretty tulle trim and the flowers. The glitter edging to the frame, too. Really gorgeous, my friend!
