Freshly Made Sketches #82 and CCC34 - Handmade Flowers.

Hello dear friends and followers!  Tonight I have a card to share with you that I made for the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #82.  The sketch this week grabbed my attention and I just had to play along.  I made my flower from a used coffee filter (rinsed out and dried) and two sizes of the Scallop circle punch (regular and small).  I was able to make two flowers (one larger and this one) from one filter.  I used my color spritzer tool to add splashes and sprays to the card.  Colors used are from Stampin' Up!:  Red Riding Hood (soon to retire) Crumb Cake and Summer Starfruit.  I wasn't sure if I would like this combo but I already had this embossed panel and ric rac strips sitting on my desk so I thought I'd give it a go.  I like how it turned out.  A pretty quick card to make thanks to the great sketch that inspired me (see below).  I am also entering this card in the Creative Card Crew Challenge #34 - Handmade Flowers. 

Gonna make this a short and sweet post tonight as tomorrow is my hubby and daughter's birthdays and I still need to make their cards.  Nothing like waiting til the last minute - I'm beginning to think that I only operate well under pressure lately :o) 

 

Thanks so much for stopping by to visit! Til next time... hugs and happy crafting! D
