IC168

This weeks Inspiration Challenge IC168 over at SCS was to use the site called Flutter. They have great home furnishing. I was really inspired by this particular rug:

Now truth be told, I knew in my head what I wanted to accomplish but I have to tell you that I stamped ALL kinds of different flowers before deciding on whipping out my old fiskars flower punches. None of the stamps I own were working well with what was in my brain, but I am soooo happy with the final result.

For this card I used Baja Breeze, Old Olive and Whisper White card stock. My dsp is from Green Tea. My flowers were stamped with fiskars punches. 3 different kinds and then my center is a simple silver brad from Making Memories. The swirl is stamped in Old Olive and that swirl is from a set called Stars over at Paper Makeup. My sentiment is H&M Stamps.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a great day!

I had the WORST time with this card. First of all, I dont work with Kraft very often so this was challenge #1. Then I was obsessing over my layout. I needed it to be just so and it was not coming out that way. So I just gave in. THEN!!! I took the picture of my card and packed my light box away and looked at my enlarged picture and there is this tiny white string on my card in the picture....but it is not on my card....the weirdest thing. THEN when looking at my enlarged picture again I see the tiny shards on my paper that is telling me my blade needs to be changed on my trimmer. SOOO you see although I do like this card I had a few challenges with it.

I made it for the color challenge over at SCS #CC201. Colors were Kraft, Not Quite Navy and Baja Breeze. My stamp is from SU. Upsy Daisy. My sentiment is from Stampendous. All cardstock is SU and so is my DSP (I believe I used Urban Garden). Navy brads are from American Crafts.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Enjoy your night.
