Cornflowers...
May 14, 2015
Hello all and happy Thursday. Once again, we are almost to the end of the week! Today’s card is a fun little number that I put together using a couple of challenges – Sweet Sunday Sketch and Sunday Stamps - color.
I went through my patterned paper to find something that would work well for the color challenge. After I found the paper, I matched it up with some lost lagoon cardstock. They look gorgeous together! I stamped the image of cornflowers on the white and ran it thru a stitched rectangle die.
The cornflowers were stamped by inking up the image with markers and then adding a sentiment and some pearls. I added a bit of twine and put it all together. I thought the sentiment was fun – it reminds me of the show Friends when Joey would always ask “how you doin’?”!
Thanks for stopping by today! Be sure to stop in tomorrow!
Have you played along with the Retro Rubber challenge yet? What? You haven’t? Now is the time people! Just add your creation to the challenge HERE! It’s all about May flowers – so whip up a cute flowery card and you are in!
Supplies: CS: SSS fog. SU! lost lagoon, PTI white, dsp from stash. Stamps: Rubbernecker cornflowers and Avery Elle simply said hello. Inks: SU! markers – lost lagoon, pool party, garden green and pear pizzazz. Memento black. Other: PTI linen impression plate, Lil Inkers stitched rectangles, twine, pearls.
Such a pretty card...the colors are gorgeous!! And I love the sentiment! I keep saying it in my head...with the appropriate New York accent of course!!
