Together Forever SDC 40

WOW-4 days in a row!!! I've found inspiration in some sketch & design challenges! and of course, I'm ignoring my messy house and choosing to stamp! he he!!

This one is for SUDSOL Design Challenge #40. SUDSOL is a demo group, click the icon in my sidebar for more information if you're interested in finding out more!

Very simple layout, and I went with an elegant look for a wedding or anniversary card. My initial thought was to again use a texture plate for the background, but then I remembered this wonderful NEW paper that we have. Both the background white and dotted vellum piece are from the Taste of Textiles pack of paper. The scan doesn't do them justice! Click to view it larger and you might see some detail. The white is called Coated White Pin Stripe, and it really shines in person! Very pretty. The vellum has Not Quite Navy Polka Dots. Card base is Not Quite Navy, top layer is Shimmery backed by Chocolate Chip. I stamped the flowers in Basic Brown and used a Blender Pen to color with Not Quite Navy classic ink. The ribbon is Chocolate Chip with white dots, from the Valet Ribbon Originals set. I stamped the Together Forever on Not Quite Navy with Craft White and punched with the Wide Oval punch. It is layered on with Dimensionals.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend! My boys are off school tomorrow and it's a usual day off for me, so we're heading shopping for dress clothes for upcoming band activities. Fun fun! Hopefully I'll still find time to share something before the day is over.
