Good morning! I hope you are having a great day! After all the running around last week getting everything ready for Easter this week seems like a breeze to me. There are lots of left overs from the big meal so I don't even have to cook today! It's great to have some extra "me" time and get to play along in a few challenges! Today I'm playing along with Just Us Girls Challenge #131. Here's a photo of the sketch this week.I started my design with a beautiful strip of ribbon given to me by my good friend JJ Bolton from the Ribbon Girls blog. It is a beautiful satin brocade with gold in it. I played with all the color in the ribbon in my design - especially that beautiful gold. I used a Copic marker to color the pins and the pearl in the center of the flower to get just the shade I wanted. The pins are stuck in a piece of pop up foam on the underside of the heart. The fancy Serendipity scroll heart is stuck down on a foam dot placed strategically under the flower.

Your card has so many lovely touches on it from the gold foil heart to the ribbon and stick pin accents. I'm going to have to give foil a go because you really make beautiful pieces for your cards with it, TFS Jeanne!
