ColorLab41

Thursday!! Welcome to another ColorLab challenge! We hope you'll play along with us this week!!

Here are the colors


BLUSHING BRIDE, CONCORD CRUSH, PEAR PIZZAZZ AND A TOUCH OF PERFECT PLUM

And, here is my creation


I'm kind of feeling many of my cards are looking the same lately. ?? Oh well, guess that would be my style. I used the Flower Fest set again this week, this time with the "star" flower and small rose. The card base is Concord Crush with a background layer of Pear Pizzazz behind the background of Whisper White. On the side is an accent of Blushing Bride done with the Scallop Ribbon punch. I stamped the background in Blushing Bride for the star flower, Concord Crush for the Rose, and small leaves in Pear Pizzazz. My touch of Perfect Plum is the center of the roses, applied with a sponge dauber. I sponged the edge with Blushing Bride and attached a ribbon strip around the base. I did a 'Mary Brown' bow using a Rhinestone brad and attached that over the ribbon. The brad is wrapped around the ribbon to secure it together. The saying is from Hope Happens and was done on Whisper White with Concord Crush and a Blushing Bride star flower. I punched that with the Decorative Label punch and layered it onto two more decorative label punches for a layered look.

Sketch Frenzy Friday 042211

Happy Friday all! And Happy Easter as well! Friday means another Sketch Frenzy Friday sketch challenge!!  Do stop over and play along with us!! This is a great sketch with LOTS of potential!!

Here is my card

based on this sketch by Robbie Rubala


Perfect timing for me as my Fun Flowers Bigz Die arrived today! Awesome!! Card base is Poppy Parade with a Daffodil Delight layer behind the Daffodil print from the Sunny Garden DSP pack. I attached a Poppy Parade ribbon across the bottom and stamped "Hope Happens" from the Hope Happens set just above it. I used the die and cut the flower using a Poppy Print from the Sunny Garden DSP. I then ran a Daffodil Delight card stock piece through with the medium flower-it needed that contrast!! The top corner of the card was covered with the same DSP print as the flower. I folded it behind and attached as part of the layer. The flower layers were curled slightly over the Paper Piercer, and then attached all together with a Whisper White jumbo brad. To that brad I attached the small scallop circle that cuts with the Fun Flowers die. The flower element is attached to the card with dimensionals. 

You may have guessed I have the same friend in mind from last week-she's having surgery today and I hope to get this in the mail to her soon!!
