Just because Valentine's Day is over doesn't mean you can't make loved cards to show them you care. I love this week's inspiration picture for ODBD Shining the Light Challenge. I love flowers and I think a bouquet of white flowers mixed with red is just so pretty. In front of the red layer is a pierced layer using ODBD Flourished Star Pattern and embossed with Lifestyle Crafts Courtyard embossing folder. I added a doily and leafy flourish from the ODBD Fancy Foliage to anchor my little spray of flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts. The sentiment from is from Key to Heaven and embossed with black fine detail embossing powder. And of course, with a sentiment like that, you need a little golden key. My little golden key is cut from gold metal craft sheet and the ODBD Angel Wings Dies comes a perfect key die.
And please check out my other CT sisters for more wonderful inspiration:
