I love the little sentiment on this card...it is from an Inque Boutique set, and unfortunately they are no longer in business. A darn shame, too, their stamps were great! Anyway, this card fulfills a slew of challenges:
- WT220, to use buttons
- CC220, So Saffron, Bashful Blue and Pumpkin Pie
- Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch #19 and
- Sharon's ssnotime#89, to make a card with spring flowers!
Pretty straightforward; I probably would have put a sentiment on the front bottom panel, but left it off so I can add it as I need it. Thanks for visiting today!
- Stamps: Flutter By, Butterfly, Inque Boutique
- Paper: WW, Haiku, Parisian Summer, Hostess Prints Pack, So Saffron, Bashful Blue, Pumpkin Pie
- Ink: Ballet Blue, Pumpkin Pie
- Acc: Birds & Blooms Die, Dew Drops, Gingham, Buttons, Walmart, Sponge Dauber, MS Eyelet Scallop Punch
So pretty and creative. The colors are very springy. I forget that it is springtime as here it always feels like summer.
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute and springy!
ReplyDeleteLeAnne very pretty. Sorry if this is a dumb question, where is the sponge dauber used in this card? Just curious... maybe there is a technique I dont know :)
ReplyDeleteLove this, LeAnne! Love the layout, the layered, buttoned flowers, the bright pops of orange, and that great sentiment! Just an all around great card!!
ReplyDeleteLiza asked where I used the sponge dauber---the flowers are layered; one layer of Pumpkin Pie, the other layer of Haiku. I sponged the edges of the PP flowers--hard to see in the photo!

Thanks!! That's new to me, now I know another way to use it, adding depth on edges. Thanks!!!!
ReplyDeleteWow. I am just going to second what Broni said....great card all around...everything about it is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteLOVE IT!!!!
Love the vibrancy of those flowers! Great card, LeAnne!
ReplyDeleteWow! What a great balance of color. Amazing getting such beauty from three strange (imo) colors.
ReplyDeleteOh this is so pretty and sweet LeAnne! I love it!
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty and sweet I love it! I also love that little mouse on the side that says "Bless me online friends". I would love to put it on mine too where did you get it?
ReplyDeleteIsn't it great when you can make one card (beautiful by the way) and knock off a whole bunch of challenges..

ReplyDeleteLove, love, love this! The colors and LO are fabulous!
ReplyDeleteJust the cutest card LeAnne!! So cheery, sweet flowers and that sentiment is PERFECT!! Sponging the edges of punched or die cut flowers give such depth to them... YOU ROCK! SMILES... :)

ReplyDeletePS: I'm ALWAYS cold ...
Tomorrow we're driving the 40 miles to Michaels. Do you think if I got more nestabilities and some rubber, I could use a rolling pin to get it to work? My Cuttlebug is too heavy to mail to me.
ReplyDeleteThat is a pretty sentiment...and a wonderful card too! Love these colors and pretty flowers!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful card for so many challenges LeAnne! I love the pop of the pretty orange flowers on the soft yellow and blue!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, LeAnne! Your Dew Drops match the flowers perfectly!
