One of my favorite kind of challenges is a sketch challenge! I love having a "map" of where to put what. "What" is up to you! I love that! This weeks Our Creative Corner challenge comes to us from Jennifer Meyer. She has hosted a month of awesome challenges! It's been so much fun. You absolutely must check out this weeks cards!
For this challenge, I went floral rather than Christmas. The set (For All You Do by Stampin' Up!) popped into my head as soon as I saw the sketch. The blossoms I thought, would be perfect for this one!
I stamped each blossom in Orchid Opulence and rock n rolled them in Rich Razzleberry. Nothing goes better with this color combo than Cottage Wall Designer Paper. It's one of my favorite color combos!
I used stitching floss to "hang" the blossoms from the top cardstock. That's Rich Razzleberrry Ribbon you see there at the top. It's one of my items I use alot. I wasn't expecting to love it so much - I am really not a polka dot kinda girl, but this ribbon is really an item you can use alot! Who knew it would be so fabulous?
The inside of the card called for more detail! I rarely "do up" the inside, but this card had so much room, it needed something special! Two scraps of paper layered on top of one another with a stamped stem and sentiment were perfect!
I hope you enjoyed and found this card to be nothing but fabulous!
