I had lots of inspiration today, starting with this splashy new Mojo Monday Sketch (MOJO185) by Julee Tilman.
- More inspiration came in the form of a fashion catalog (Garnet Hill). I loved the mix of color and softness of the polka dot dress. Fun, yes?
- The Stampin' Up! Fun Flowers Bigz L Die. I love it and never anticipated how much paper art mileage I would get from it.
- The wide scallop (Rose Red) was created with the Tasteful Trim Bigz XL Die. It's still available as part of the Stampin' Up! Holiday Mini Carry Over List.
- Adding Perfect Plum Polka Dot Designer Paper to the envelope flap adds a coordinating polish. Paper Snips make navigating the curves a snap!
