Hi Everyone: Today, my post is for the challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches challenge plus it is also for a swap. I got the idea for my card from Sandy Mathis over at Stamp with Sandy.
The challenge at Freshly Made Sketches is called "seeing double".Thank you Sandy for the inspiration.
Stamps: Flower Fest (c-122280, $24.95, w-122278, $33.95, p. 124, 2011/2012 IB&C), Just Believe (c-120453, $31.95, w-116948, $41.95, p. 109, 2011/2012 IB&C)
Paper: Naturals Ivory, Cajun Craze, Pear Pizzazz, Always Artichoke,
Ink: River Rock, Always Artichoke
Accessories: Big Shot, Label Framelits, 5-Petal Flower Punch, Versa-mark, White Embossing Powder, Pearls, Very Vanilla 5/8” Satin Ribbon
To make the leaves, I stamped another flower from the set and punched out with the 5-Petal Flower punch and then cut the petals apart to use for the leaves.
This colour combination is new to me and I am very pleased with the way it came together. I am certainly loving the framelit dies.
Enjoy the rest of your evening and until next time.
Can a card be lively and pretty at the same time Karen? I hope so because that was what I instantly thought when I viewed yours. Love the brightness of your colours and the pretty feel it has.
