My new flannel sheets & kitchen towels are shades of blue & gray. They inspired my card for the Dynamic Duos and ODBD challenges. My stamps are by ODBD: Vintage Border Background & Little Things. A friend is facing surgery & I thought this might make her smile. My inks are Memento Teal Zeal and Brilliance Starlite Black. Love the softness vellum gives to a mat. Have quite a stash of paper flowers & decided I better start using them, especially since this bottle included these blue ones that are a great match.
