Good Thoughts Card


I did two "firsts" on this card.  First, I had never used foil transfer sheets.  Second, I had never used linen thread on a card.  You certainly get to try new things if you join the card blog challenges.  I had some foil transfer which I had bought at Hobby Lobby a long time ago on clearance.  I had to borrow some linen thread from a friend who luckily had some.  The flower and bee stamps are new and had never seen ink.  They are by Hampton Art and have matching dies  They will be blooming at the following challenges:
 
Mod Squad Challenge (Foil It Up)

Tic Tac Toe Challenge (I did row of yellow, linen thread and feminine.)

Time Out Challenges (Inspired by words -- the quote on the card.)

Southern Girls (Flower Power)

Just Us Girls (Wild Card Week -- Use something old and /or new.  The foil transfer is old and the stamps/dies are new.)

My Time To Craft (#351 Sketchy Time)
Come and Get It Challenges (Just Add Flowers)

Love how you used the actual quote for your sentiment. Your flowers are very sweet--such a rustic and country feel for this card. Thanks so much for playing along at Time Out.
