Passionate

Pin It

I love this image, so passionate, so romantic!  Perfect for Cindy Adkins its a  Woman Thing  the link party and Beverly's Pink Saturday, link party.  A big thanks to Cindy and Beverly for hosting.  
I won a gift certificate to Shabby Cottage Studio and I chose a ton a papers and the collage sheet this image came from called Valentines.  Many thanks to Linda at Random Creativity for allowing me the opportunity to win this wonderful gift certificate.  I love the paper and I love the fact that I will never run out of it!  Digital papers are such a great thing for paper hoarders, we can use our favorites freely because we will never run out!   I was like a kid in a candy store choosing these gorgeous vintage style papers, you will see more of these in the future.  My $10.00 gift certificate went a long way too, Gail's products are very reasonably priced.  I also like buying the paper by the sheet instead of a set.  This paper is called Edgy Ornamental Diamonds it is in the Pink section.  I love how the papers are grouped by colors too.  Gail offers both digital and hard copies of these papers along with many other vintage products.  She also offers online classes, stop by her blog to see more information on the classes she offers.  I am also linking up to Seasonal Sunday's, many thanks to the Tablescaper for the invite.  Stop by and see her amazing tablescapes.
This went together so easily, I made it with my new tools from Perfect Paper Crafting.  I will tell you more about them in my next post.  Thanks for looking.  ~Diane
