Fresh Cuts & Fabulous Flowers

Hi everyone! Here are a couple cards I made today.

The first one is for today's sketch challenge (#SC179). I've been wanting to try these colors together ever since I saw a card that Silke made with the combo (thanks for the inspiration, Silke!). You can see her card with this color combo HERE.

The scalloped Close to Cocoa circle is up on dimensionals, and then the Barely Banana circle is up on a second layer of dimensionals. The inside includes a white panel of CS with some stamping across the bottom (flowers were stamped in Barely Banana and the stems were stamped in Close to Cocoa).

Stamps: SU Fresh Cuts
Paper: Chocolate Chip, Whisper White, Close to Cocoa, Barely Banana
Ink: Close to Cocoa, Barely Banana
Accessories: Brown sparkly brads, circle and scallop circle nestabilities, dimensionals


The next card combines Tuesday's Color Challenge with Sunday's Featured Stamper Challenge.

The featured stamper this past Sunday was Maren (mmbc). I can see why she was picked...she has a really great style!! You can view her gallery HERE. This is HER CARD that I chose to CASE.

The rules of the Featured Stamper Challenge are to change some things. I kept the same basic layout, the same flower from the Fabulous Flowers set, and the scalloped edge along the bottom. I just changed the color combo, stamped my ribbon instead of tying a bow, and used Swarovski Crystals instead of brads on the scallops.

The flower was stamped three times in Blue Bayou, and then cut out in three sections. Each of the three sections is up on a separate layer of dimensionals, and the edges of the flowers have some Irridescent Ice embossed on them.
