Hello Friends! I’m popping in today to share an adorable sketch challenge I found this Sunday…

Isn’t it fabulous?? I knew right away which stamp set I wanted to use…Wild About Flowers by Stampin’ Up! And here it my card:)

I just recently caved and purchased this Designer Series Paper from Stampin’ Up!. I have been on a self imposed moratorium on purchasing 12 x 12 paper because I feel that most of the designs are too large  for a card. But I saw so many samples with this lovely paper that I finally ordered it…I know, I’m easily enabled!

But isn’t it ca-yoot?? The colors in this paper are supposed to be Melon Mambo, Blushing Bride, Old Olive and Mossy Meadow. Sometimes though, Stampin’ Up! does shades of a color rather than use it at 100%. I didn’t think it looked like Melon Mambo so I pulled out the retired color Primrose Petals and was happy as can be with that match.

I adore how the font on the sentiment really pairs well with the flower images, and sentiments such as this one are hard to come by so I will keep this set indefinitely!! Can you just barely see the shimmer on the flowers?? So pretty!

Thank you so much for popping in, or for being a subscriber, I appreciate you!!

Wishing you joy and blessings!
