Hero Arts giveaway...

Quick post for today. Made this card for Hero Arts 30 grand giveaway this weekend. You can check out the detail here. There's still time to play.



I am using HA Flower Blossom set and PTI Asian Fusion for the greeting. I used chalks in different shades of blue to create the soft background. For the center of the flowers, I did the french knot (3 knots for the big flowers, 2 for the medium one, and 1 for the smallest flower). I also covered the flowers with Radiant pearls and to make it even more sparkly, I add diamond stickles to each petal.

Up close you can see the soft pearl showing in between all the glitters. Add butterfly for a little accent.

OK, short one today. Off to the mall for some shopping therapy. :) You all have a great Sunday and if you're into the Olympic like I am this afternoon should be fun watching US vs Canada in ice hockey. Exciting!!!
