| Out with the Old |

| In with the New |
Welcome to the Three Amigos Blog Hop for July! This month our theme is "Blast From the Past". For me this meant pulling out an old favorite card that I couldn't part with and updating it a bit. Although I loved the cartoon feel of it, there were just some things I wasn't happy with. I removed some of the parts. I replaced paper flowers on the tree with acrylic flowers that were intended to be used on fingernails and some awesomely cute sequins from PaperSweeties. I removed the balloon which I am not sure, but I think was hand drawn and I didn't like the dark color of it and of course, I added an owl. I also replaced the clouds with a better version (balloon and clouds are from Lifting Spirits). I removed the button and added a badge. I removed the sentiment and added a bunch of new items. I think I'm finally ready to send this one out into the world. I had a lot of fun recreating it. Now head over to
Donna's and
Susan's Blog and see what oldies but goodies they have in store for you!
I love both versions of the card! You always find a way to add "MORE" and improve on that which is already perfect!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to update......I have a few cards that could do with that treatment too! Both cards look fabulous.....love all the clusters of embellishments,the sparkle on the tree is so pretty.
ReplyDeleteDonna said it all, ditto.
