Hello Everyone! Lots of new changes happening here at the Cottage! How FUN! Welcome to the new DT members. Looking forward to getting to know you!
I was away for 2 weeks. Had a wonderful time with family and friends! I so enjoyed seeing my 8 sisters and having a slumber party with lots of yummy food, laughter, and sitting around a campfire. I am trying to make this a yearly event!
I also got to meet Kathy Jakopovich, The Peachy Queen, and her family. Angelica, her daughter, just introduced herself to the Scrapping Cottage Design Team. I am thrilled she is joining us with her artistic talent and sweet personality.
Now on to my card for today. I use the Bird with Flowers die from the Flower Power Release. As I designed the card, it reminded me of the Swedish style of art with vivid colors. I was thinking of the Dala. I made the card first and then searched for a photo that I thought could have been the inspiration. A little backward, I know, but art takes me on a journey.
I enjoyed making this card and I hope you like it! Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hugs and smiles,
Janice
We had a great time meeting you and I am SO glad you had a blast with your sisters!! You definitely need to come back on an annual basis!! :) Your Swedish bird is so pretty, I love the red and turquoise together. Fabulous "inspiration" too ;). Even if it came after the art....sometimes that's just how it works!! Hugs, Angelica
