LPS Release Day!

Today Julia releases both {Sweet} and {Flower Frenzy}...these two sets are really versatile! I share with you one more sample using LPS' {Flower Frenzy}.

When I saw this damask stamp (obviously I like damask...look at my blog!), I knew I wanted to incorporate Basic Grey's Romani. This is an older line but I have lots of it (you should see the box of Basic Grey I have sitting here!). Plus I must have that new June Bug and Lemonade once it's available (drool!). Sometimes I hate living in Canada...it takes so long to get our hands on the good stuff! (I know all you gals from Australia/New Zealand are thinking "Shut up Allison"...you're right I shouldn't complain about waiting a few extra weeks compared to you guys!). Anyhoo, here's my card!



The DP really made the color combo for me...a mix of apricot/pumpkin, pink and vanilla. Plus I used a free piercing template from Fred, She Said...loves it!

Note: Tracey Lynn has a slew of other freebies...check 'em out!

Great card. I love the piercing. And you're right, it does take a long time to get good stuff in Canada. Here in Toronto, craft stores are few and far between.
Thanks for the link to the freebies.
