Happy Thursday Peeps!
Today I am sharing a card I made using a couple of challenges. I used the Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge and this week's color challenge on The Paper Players Blog.
The color challenge is Not Quite Navy, Pool Party and Certainly Celery, a pretty color combo.
I started my card with a base of Pool Party card stock and followed that with some Not Quite Navy card stock. The Certainly Celery DSP is from the Soft Subtles Patterns Pack.
I then used some not Quite Navy card stock that I embossed with the square lattice EF. I added a strip of Pool Party and some more DSP, this Pool Party piece is from the Attic Boutique pack.
I pulled out a sweet little single stamp from Stampin Up called Triple Treat flower. This pretty little stamp had never been inked!! I stamped the flower three times, using each of the colors from the color challenge. I used my large fancy lower punch, my 5 petal flower punch, and my 1/2 inch circle punch to punch out the flower layers. I added a dimensional between each layer and a tiny silver brad to the center circle.
I mounted the flower to an embossed scallop circle made with my 2-3/8" circle scallop punch.
The little sentiment is from the Thank You Kindly stamp set. I used some pool party seam binding ribbon across the top and to tie the bow. I added a silver brad to each corner.
Well, that is all from me today, thanks for stopping by and
HAPPY STAMPING!!!
