Yeah, it's Friday! That means it's Bloggers' Challenge. This week's challenge is to CASE (copy and share everything) a fellow Bloggers' Challenge member. Let me tell you, deciding who to CASE and then which project to CASE was no easy task! I decided to use Lisa B's layout from this card. I changed the colors and stamp sets and then when I was done, I realized I left out the Designer Series Paper panel too. Oops--I had already stamped my leaves so it was too late. But Lisa's card was still my inspiration!
What pulled me to this card is the stamping on the Scallop Circle Die (cut out with the Big Shot) and the actual card. I think that is a very cool effect. Once I stamped the leaves from Embrace Life, I colored them with my Certainly Celery Marker. Then I stamped the flowers on Whisper White card stock and cut them out. I used a Sponge Dauber to sponge the edges with Almost Amethyst ink on the edges and just a touch of So Saffron in the middle. The flowers are popped out with Stampin' Dimensionals. My card is finished with a piece of So Saffron Striped Grosgrain.
This weekend is Stamp Camp so I'm looking forward to stamping with all my "campers". I'll share a few of the projects this weekend so be sure to check back.
Thanks for the visit!
