MY LOVE OF TULIPS


My love of Tulips or should I say my love of flowers.
I made this card for Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 but also for an older friend of ours who was turning 79.  She is from Holland and I knew she would love this Tulip card.

Here's another great sketch so you can use those scape pieces of design paper we all have in our stash.  I love the way this card turned out with the pink and rose gold.

This is such an easy sketch to follow and I know you'll be very happy with how your card turns out.


1. Base: White card stock French Linen.
2. Coloured Paper: Bazzill Pinkini and Rose Gold mirror board.
3. Design Paper: Uniti Foil papers.
