I’m always looking for inspiration. I subscribe to a couple of online stamping groups and I follow several stampers and design teams. One of the design teams I follow is Create with Connie and Mary. These gals–and their design team–do beautiful work. You should check out their website!
Connie and Mary also host a weekly color challenge and this week’s colors are to die for! I was already planning this card in my head with a different color scheme. But when I saw this color challenge, I changed it up because these colors are so yummy. This week’s color challenge is Perfect Plum, Island Indigo, and Smoky Slate. Wowza! There are some beautiful cards on the site using these colors!
My entry features the Petite Petals stamp set and matching punch from the Occasions mini catalog. After punching the flowers, I used my bone folder to curl the edges to give them more shape and dimension. The flowers are attached using a dimensional and each has a medium rhinestone in the center. I stamped the Just For You stamp from the Label Love set once in Island Indigo and again in Perfect Plum. I cut out the middle of the Perfect Plum piece so I could do a two-tone sentiment. A piece of silver ribbon rounds out the card nicely, I think.
