Sending all my love...



It is Hambo Hoedown time again! This week we had a lovely basket of hearts and a wonderful sentiment to work with! In addition to the basket and the sentiment, we had to use flowers and lace. This card was DEFINITELY outside my comfort zone...but I think it turned out really pretty. If you played along with the Hoedown last week, you should receive these images to play along. If you didn't, then you can get them over at Hambo! This would be a perfect Mother's Day set! I believe the patterned paper is from a pack by Memory Box. I also used my favorite Cuttlebug embossing folder-textile texture to create some dimension behind the image.

You will LOVE all the other samples made by my fellow Bacon Bits! Go check them out!
