I have said this before but here it goes again...I LOVE CHALLENGES!
I am always a fan of color challenges and Play Date Cafe does such a good job of putting them together but this weeks combo is a "MUST DO"! Is this yum?
I also love sketches so as I was trying to decide how I was going to put that color combo together, I came across the Sketchy Thursday sketch and while these are meant for layouts, I knew I wanted to try it on a card.
I went searching for a photo to use because I liked that that one part of the card would be a photo that I took. I found this wonderful, orange rose photo that I took as I walked through a garden.
The flourish piece is cut with my Cricut using the Cindy Loo cartridge. The sentiment is printed directly on the card front. I used a digital stamp by The Wax Fruit Company.
I loved in the sketch that they used a butterfly going off of the edge and so I used my Kreaxions butterfly die with this text patterned paper. Notice I created a decorative middle to the butterfly by pleating a strip of matching paper.
This card uses the Card Positioning Systems sketch for this week. Want2Scrap is the sponsor for this week. You MUST check out their BLING! They offer shapes of rhinestones and pearls that fit with the shapes of Spellbinder dies. SOOO clever.
Thanks for visiting, Linda (lbpost)
