Am I the only one who struggles to come up with titles for my blog posts? Sometime the card screams a title, and other times, like today, not so much! The next few weeks are going to be pretty busy for me, so I am trying to get ahead on my cardmaking by working on April birthday cards. I am also ready for spring, so I've been turning to my spring color combinations quite a bit lately! Today's card is for Jen del Muro's weekly "Sketch for you to try" challenge. You can find the details HERE!I pulled out some Washington Apple designer paper (love that stuff!) and paired it with a Tim Holtz flower stamp and the sentiment from Happy Everything by SU. I limited the embellishment since this card will go in the mail. I inked the flower stem in celery and the blooms in saffron, then rolled the edges of the blooms in pumpkin. I stamped an extra bloom, used some circle punches to cut it out, and layered it with a dimensional for a little extra oomph.
Supplies:
Stamps: Tim Holtz, Happy Everything from SU
Ink: saffron, pumpkin pie, bashful blue, celery
Paper: bashful blue, neenah classic crest white, Washington Apple dsp
Accessories: CM circle punches

This is so pretty Michelle. I love the bright cherry colors. Great job with that sketch too!
Just adorable, Mish!! Love the image and that yummy DP!! I just remembered today that I said I'd send you some of those Magenta bunny images - I'll try to get that done tomorrow. I'm so sorry for being such a slacker friend. Hopefully you'll forgive me!! Hugs!
