Live Your Bliss
Hey there, Bleeps! I'm back today with a card inspired by Everything But the Kitchen Sink sketch challenge. The photo of the fireplace and mantle reminded me of my own home and I wanted to incorporate that design into a card. Since I love the color combination of blue and brown in my home, I thought I should carry that over onto the card as well. Because the focal point ended up being elegant, I made it a wedding card.
Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your Tuesday!
