Picnic Basket RECIPE and SUPPLIES:
- Background piece is cut as follows: 4.25 x 9.75 inches and then scored at 5.5 inches which then is folded in half making a triangle. The paper is Recollections turquoise cardstock
- cut another piece of the background paper 4.25 x 5.5 inches which get glued on the triangle piece
- background is paper I had received from a friend which 2 pieces were cut 4 x 5.25 inches
- Picnic Basket was colored with Prisma Colored Pencils, Tim Holtz Markers with gel pen accents which was fussy cut around the edges and puff-dotted onto my card
- ribbon is blue gingham which gives my card that homespun feeling and tied into a bow
- sentiment, "Its the little things that mean so much", had been a previous freebie from Create with TLC, chalked around the edges and mounted on scrap of base of card
- flowers were cut using Cricut Plantin Cartridges and chalked around the edges with Queen & Co. gold pearls and placed around the sentiment
