~Doily Love~









I cut a doily out with my Silhouette and sponged it. I meant to use the gorgeous doily...but I was drawn to the image it left on a paper that was protecting my desk.


I sponged again over a cardbase and got this one layer card.




I can see making a set of these in various colors for a couple of friends who own chickens!


I'm a little late for the hop...but squeezing my submission in just in time....




stamps: Waltzingmouse French Country
die: Samantha Walker Doily Lace (Silhouette Cameo)

What a great effect. I first thought that your doily was an openable flap...such great dimension on this lovely creation!

Oh that is a COOL one layer card, Marlena! It totally looks like a doily just floating over the top of the card base :) LOVE it with Mr. Rooster! This would make such a fun card set to give!!

The doily looks so pretty with the Rooster's Good Morning! I don't own chickens, but sure would love a set of these note cards :^)
