Tuesday Trigger - Light & Bright w/Paper Pleating

Just feast your eyes on this crazy cool card! I have NEVER made anything quite like it before and I LOVE it!! It is based on the Moxie Fab World Tuesday Trigger - Light & Bright pictured below. When I look at this picture I think - modern, clean, bright, glass, uncluttered, comfy, etc.
It is definitely a room that I would never have in my beach house but it is very striking. My patterned paper choice is based on the one element missing from the trigger picture! I would put a patterned pillow on that lonely white chair and I'd put a red ruffled edge on it to soften it just a bit.

The Zva crystals reflect all the clear glass and I am really tickled that I wrote my own sentiment with Basic Grey and Cosmo Cricket mini stickers. The lovely Webster's Bloomers rose ribbon was a gift from my dear friend, Kim - Thanks, Chicka!! The paper treatment at the bottom of the card is pleated courtesy of the pleating lesson from Maren Benedict on Paper Crafts Connection. Make sure you take the advice of this card this weekend - "Sit a minute and relax"
