Hopefully, you've arrived here by way of Stacy M.'s blog, Sweethearts & Sweet Tarts. If so, you are on the right track! If not, you'll want to head over to the DeNami blog to start the blog hop at the beginning. (And remember, if you get lost along the way, you can always head over to the DeNami blog to get pointed in the right direction.)
Don't forget, there are delightful DeNami prizes to be won! Two lucky duckies will be drawn at random from among the comments left along the blog hop to win a $20 DeNami Design gift certificate! You have until Monday, May 21, 2012, 11:59 pm PST, to leave comments on all the blogs to be eligible for a prize.
Getting projects ready for DeNami Blog Hops is always a blast, but this one was especially fun because I just love pastels! Here's what I came up with:
I did some tone-on-tone background stamping using the scalloped border stamp from the cling-style DeNami Spring Garden 1 Set to frame some pastel polka-dotted ribbon from my stash. The "thinking of you" sentiment comes from the DeNami Thoughtful Greetings stamp set.
I made that layered fabric flower myself from pink cotton fabric I had on hand, and hand-trimmed some DeNami celery cardstock into a leaf shape for my sentiment. Perfectly pastel embellishments, don't you agree?
Well, I do believe that I am the last stop on today's blog hop. I hope that you've been overwhelmed with DeNami inspiration in all shades of pastels today! Before you leave, be sure to leave a
comment to be eligible for the randomly drawn prizes.
Thanks so much for stopping by to check out my pretty pastels creation!

I had to really stare at the flower to see it wasn't paper - that's some incredibly fine-woven fabric! I love the idea...and now I want to see if I can make one :) I love the sentiment on the leaf - that's genius :)
Gorgeous card and that FLOWER....WOW!!!!
Now how adorable is this!?!
Love your flower, the button, the cheery ribbon, and your stitching -
true inspiration! :o)
This is such a soft and lovely card Emily! LOVE your fabric flower and the polka dot ribbon. A beautiful way to end the hop!
a lovely card... Love your flower
That flower is made from fabric? No way! I was sure it was cardstock and kept looking for your creases. Amazing Emily. I love the celery leaf sentiment and that pretty tone-on-tone BG stamping.
stunning! that flower is gorgeous. i adore the subtle background strips...the whole thing is so pretty!
Beautiful flower! I love that it is fabric and not paper. And I love that tone on tone stamping of the border stamp to create your background paper. Just gorgeous.
I love your card, it is just precious. I am interested in what you didn't write about - the stitching. I'd like to learn how to do that, as far as punching out the holes so evenly and then lining up the two layers of paper. It is so pretty.
Great card, I really like all the different textures.
LOVE that flower! So simple and clean and it just makes the card. Great job!
LOVE this card, Emily! Your flower is wonderful & the design is perfect!

Great flower, Emily, and I love the combination of pink yellow and green together. Really pretty card.
Very pretty Emily! I thought the flower was paper! I love the banner down the center.

Emily, your folded flower is gorgeous! Love that you also added some tone-on-tone stamping...everything came together to make one fabulous card! :)
I love pastels too and you made a wonderful surprise with the flower! Great job!
Emily, I love the softness of your fabric fower and the added dimension it brings to the card. Tone-on-tone stamping in the background and the stitching along the sides along with the tucked in a leaf greeting make this card so sweet!
Total awesomeness on your card, Emily! I love EVERYTHING about it! ;D Hugz2u, Sharon
