You Mean So Much To Me

Happy Wednesday Peeps!!!

Over at the The Paper Players, they have a fun sketch challenge:

My go to color when coloring flowers seems to almost always be some shade of pink, so I decided

I need to switch things up a bit.

So for this card I pulled out a pallet of purples.

I used Purple Posy for my card base and Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape for my flowers.

 

The flowers are from the Stampin Up Sale A Bration set called Happy Birthday To You.

I stamped the cake image several times with black stazon onto thick Whisper White card stock.

I colored with my Aqua Painter and ink pads.

I used some Daffodil Delight in the center of the flowers and Pear Pizzazz for the leaves.

I then fussy cut out all the flower images I needed for my card front.

I used two Rectangle Stitched Dies to make my white frame that I added to the Purple Posy card base with dimensionals.

I hen added my flowers to the card with dimensionals as well.

My sentiment comes from the Forever Blossoms stamp set.

I stamped with Black Memento ink onto a scrap of Crumb Cake cardstock.

 

I finished with a few rhinestones from the Noble Peacock pack and then added a small twine wrap with a bow around the side of the white frame.

 I pulled this twine from a piece of Burlap ribbon. 

Listed below are all the "ingredients" used to make this project.

You've Been on My Mind

 

Happy Monday Peeps!!

Over at Just Us Girls  Challenge 

it is photo week.

Highland Heather is such a pretty color and was my choice for this card.

I used the image from the All That You Are stamp set. 

I stamped with black stazon and 

colored with my aqua painter and ink pads.

 I used Heather Highland and Wild Wasabi with a bi of Daffodil Delight.

 

 

I fussy cut the floral image out, selectively eliminating a few pieces, and sit it aside.

My base is Highland Heather, as is the embossed panel. I used the Basket weave EF .

I die cut a piece of DSP from the Wood Grains pack to use for my flower base piece.

I used a die from the Wonderful Floral  Framelits. 

It is a bit obscured by the flower image.

 I added some twine first and then the flower piece.

My sentiment comes from the Butterfly Gala set.

I used my Wink of Stella pen on the flowers, 

I love the shimmer it gives but it never shows on camera.

I finished up with a few sticky sequins.

Thanks for taking a look.
