Do you love to crochet? If so, then you know how beautiful Irish Lace is. Irish Lace was created by the Nuns in Ireland during the potato famine as a way to get through the poverty. Irish lace is created with crochet thread and a tiny crochet hook and consist of beautiful roses and lace.
This was made for the Dirty Dozen theme of "Keeping You in Stitches". I love to crochet so I thought I would use my crochet roses for this card. The roses are mounted into the center of the Heartfelt Creations Posy Patch Die.
I used Rangers Bundled Sage Distress ink and white card stock to create this card. The pearl center brads are from Michael's in the Bridal Section. I sprayed my flowers with Sparkle Spritz. I used a Cheery Lynn flourish die to compliment the flowers. The center die cuts are from Spellbinders and the Martha Stewart Punch around the page is called French Scroll. The pearls are recollection. I also embossed pieces of card stock with a cuttlebug embossing folder.
Here is another close up of the flowers I created. The sentiment is something I created in word and just printed out.
Thank you for visiting today. I hope you have a wonderful day. See you again real soon.
