The cover was simple enough with just sewing little punched hearts and a watercolored organza flower on front of the textural fabric. The little hearts can be flipped and one side is watercolored and the other is stamped with the words "My Dear One". Inside there is layered on the tulle, some script paper that was been ink kissed, the sentiment " Kindness is the sunshine in which friendships blossom." which was cut out and the Stampsmith flapper stamped image. Some pastel stapled hearts, picot edged ribbon, some watercolor accents and Stickles detail finish my fabric card today.
Hope you will be bathed in sunshine and kindness this week.
yours truly, gerri

I really, really like this. I love the different elements you used to give it that great look! I didn't know you were in the fashion industry -- How cool is that?! I used to be a personal assistant to a fashion designer in England and just loved it. Small world.... =)
