Color & Sketch Challenge

Today's color challenge on Kristina Werner's blog was a delicious combination:

• Very Vanilla
• Soft Sky
• Chocolate Chip
• Close to Cocoa

Yum yum!! I combined it with today's SCS sketch challenge, and although the card was fun to make, it was hard to photograph!! It really looks better IRL! I hope you can get a good look at it in the closeup view!
The folded Soft Sky base is 4 x 8 1/2", stamped with Tres Chic also in Soft Sky, with an edge folded back. I covered the front edge with some striped ribbon from Michaels. I stamped the large flower from Looks Like Spring in each of the colors, and also stamped the small flower trio as well. I cut & punched them out (why did they retire that punch?) and mounted them on the fold. But before I did that, I added some sparkly brads in the centers of the flowers. They are just regular silver brads on which I stuck a mini glue dot. I then kind of smooshed the glue dot around the head of the brad and dipped it in SU's new colored glitter. Voila! Sparkly brads in about 30 seconds!! I finished the card by stamping the flowers from Boho Backgrounds in Soft Sky on a piece of Very Vanilla that I had scalloped with my corner rounder and adhered this to the inside back edge of the card. I do need some birthday cards, so I went ahead and stamped a sentiment on the front of the card in Chocolate Chip. My feeling is that the flowers are in too straight of a line, I feel like they need to be more randomly spaced, but it is done now! Thanks for looking!
