Hello friends!
It's time once again for a new challenge over on the Addicted to Stamps Challenge Blog.
Today, it's my turn to be your hostess and the theme I have chosen is:
FLOWERS
I'm so happy with the outcome of this card!
I won this adorable stamp set called 'Flowers in Bloom' from Sweet 'n Sassy
way back in 2011 and hadn't inked it up until now! (MY BAD!!!)
After stamping onto a scrap of white card stock, I colored my image using Spectrum Noir alcohol markers. Then I die cut my image using a Tutti Designs Stitched Nesting Oval. To 'frame' this pretty image, I die cut three panels using the Tutti Designs Scalloped Stitched Ovals and stacked them together.
My background paper is from the Echo Park 'Dots & Stripes' 6x6 paper pack.
The lattice background grid is a die from Dee's Distinctive that I've cut from yellow card stock. My additional butterflies were cut from a scrap of blue card stock using the Martha Stewart 3-in-1 butterfly punch.
I hope you'll come join in this FUN challenge
and there are prizes offered too!
Hope to see you there!!
As always, thanks SO MUCH for taking the time to stop by!
A beautiful card and image, I love the dies you have used too.

Darlene, your floral card is very pretty. I just realized I don't create many yellow cards. I have the paper, but it isn't a color I readily grab. You have inspired me!
ReplyDeleteBeautifully colored flowers design and I love the die that you used to back it on. Wonderfu card
ReplyDeleteHow pretty, I love your beautifully colored image. Your polka dot background and that yellow die cut are a perfect backdrop, and the blue butterflies matching the one in your image are so well thought out. Love everything about this card!
ReplyDeleteI love it, Darlene! The yellow, that cool grid die, the polka dots and, of course, the flowers... it all comes together so beautifully!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful Darlene..I love the stamped image and the background with the yellow die is gorgeous..I love the added blue butterflies too.

isn't it sad that we just don't have time to play with all our new stuff :) You did a beautiful job coloring, love the dimension on the framing and the addition of your punched butterflies to go with the one in the image
