Hi Everybody,Todays Friday Freebie is a card with a background created with Shaving Foam
This is an old video tutorial that I did and I have added it before but for those that are new to the idea I have added it again
The Card is in a lovely deep purple with a flower corsage to match and the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts
I have sparkled them up with fine iridescent glitter from Glitter Magic
The hat pin is a very feminine addition and it is removable from the card. I use 3" hat pins with end protectors from the Sparkles Group
The sentiment is from Lili of the Valley and is one of a set on an A5 sheet of verses
