For today's Inspiration challenge (the borders on the home page) and for Mark's Finest Papers Speedy's Friends challenge to make your own designer paper with stamps. I used MFP's Pears and Hollyhock set colored in Copic markers and shaded with pastel chalks. Added pink satin ribbon to embellish.
I was inspired by the pink beaded cherub pillow found here:
http://roses-and-teacups.com/ Stamp is unknown, embellished with silk flowers, pearls, lace, stick pin, and white satin ribbon.
Beautiful cards! The pear card is so pretty and the cherub is beautifully done!
