!!! HAPPY MONDAY !!!
Blends and 3 Girl JAM-mers
This card took about 10 minutes total to put together, which is quite the record for me. I tend to always want to add "more" as I craft, but this time, I forced myself to stop sooner. I would like to try my hand at "speed crafting" a lot this year. It will help me to get more projects completed and open the door for me to try my hand at tackling more of the fun techniques on my "to-do" list.
I started with a 5.5 in. x 5.5 in. Purple Card Base
--- David Tutera: Celebrate Card Sets
(several of the DT Card sets are available at the Pinque Peacock Discount Hut)
The Peacock Feather patterned paper was cut at 5.25 in. x 5.25 in. and distressed around the edges using my Tim Holtz distressing tool!
--- Recollections Signature Serious PRETTY AS A PEACOCK 12X12 stack
(This was a fabulous gift from my Sweet Crafty Friend Heather F.---thanks Heather :) )
The sentiment tag is also from the same Pretty Peacock stack and was cut to fit within the center of my card. I simply masked it with a lighter shade of purple card stock then used some foam squares to give it some height on the front of the card. I love that glittery peacock, don't you?
I used the Ribbon Candy Red Crinkle Ribbon from the 3 Girl JAM Shop to create a sweet Pleated Petal - Elegant Floral for my card.
I love making these flowers for the Pinque Peacock Shop Customers.
It's always fun to use them on my own creations, too.
I adorned the elegant floral with a Pearl Beaded Stick Pin (also from Pinque Peacock) and a few paper roses from another sweet crafty friend, Adele, who sells them!

I am happy to be the Design Team Member posting at the 3 Girl JAM Blog today!
It is such an honor for me to be a part of this team from the first Hoorah! I can't foresee me every departing. I have a MAD CRUSH on Julie K's Crinkle Ribbon and do not have a desire to seek any type of recourse for the addiction. (LOL)
Here is the Project I am sharing:
