Take time to smell the flowers!

Good Afternoon Blogging Friends!
It's a busy day 'here in the cave', but I decided to take a break and share with you a card I made over the weekend for the Great Impressions Monthly Challenge.  Now their challenge theme for the month is FLORAL IMAGES and of course if you have a Great Impressions floral image, all the better because that will get you two entries towards the prize.


Now, I know I have actual floral image stamps by Great Impressions but do you think I could find one?  NO!!  But the image I used for the background is by Great Impressions and it is #G304.  The stamp I used for my focus is by Rubber Cottage and it is #RC-588FA 'Corner Flower'.  I've used my Spectrum Noir alcohol markers for the coloring and matted it with a piece of scrap lavender card stock I had on my craft table then popped it up.

If you're looking for a name on the border panel ... sorry can't help you!  
It's actually the NEGATIVE from a piece I cut for a different project using the Cheery Lynn Designs #B136 'Anastasia Border' die. It too was in my scrap pile and I thought would work perfectly!!

A few other challenges:
AMusing Challenge - Anything Goes
Scribble and Scrap #12 - Anything Goes
Sentiment Sunday - Make your own background paper
The Squirrel and the Fox - Something Spooled (ribbon)

Thanks so much to swinging by and taking a peek!
I hope you find even a pinch of inspiration when you come to visit!  
Take care ... back to work!
