IN THE PINK


Although pink is definitely not one of my favorite colors, I put this card together yesterday to match the envelope I found in the midst of my completed card box. It somehow got separated from its card, which I probably mailed in another envelope over a year ago. Using two coordinating pieces of scrap dp, which were in my scrap dp drawer for just such an "emergency," I pieced this lily together and mounted it on white cardstock. (BTW, when saving scraps, I keep only pieces that are larger than a business card. Otherwise, I'd be buried in scraps by now!)

After adding black Stickles to the stamens and some embroidery floss on the side, it is now in my box of ready-to-go cards! This might make a nice get well card, with a "hoping you're in the pink again soon" kind of saying...
