TGIF!! - - woooo: it's Friday and then I gots me a 3-day weekend, oh yeah!
So today I'm sharing 2 cards that I did for the CARDS blog challenge this week. The challenge was simple: flowers. I love their challenges (so far) - - they totally do not stifle my creativity like I often feel with color and sketch challenges, so I am enjoying playing along.
Sidenote: one of my October cards is on the CARDS blog as a sneakie peekie for the magazine; second one down on the right *wink*
This first card features Paper Temptress paper and some little beaded flower gems from Marcella K. The flowers are fancy and so is the Copper Metallic Glossy so I used more of a drab cardstock and added some stitching to make it fancy but down-to-earth, KWIM?
I'm pretty pleased with this next card because the papers are from the Monstrosity line by Sassafras Lass which is full of cute little monsters and other shapes and not heavy on the whimsy, flowery kind of stuff. So making this from that paper pack was a fun lil' challenge for me.
Happy day to you!

I love the stitching on these. And I'm with you....I like challenges that are doable. Like using flowers!

Love the beaded flowers and metallic paper on the first card. The second card is very vibrant and whimsical. Nicely done!
