Spring Floral

Here is the other card we made yesterday. The only stamping on this one is with the Spring Floral wheel. We used it three ways, with VersaMark on the front of the card, with pink Pirouette on the inside and heat embossed on the ribbon. Did you know you can heat emboss on ribbon? So cool! I love the effect of the white embossing powder on the Pink Pirouette ribbon. The photo doesn't do it justice. That cute flower is made from 3 scallop circles. Amazingly I only saw it in the Idea Book & Catalogue this week. I don't know how many times I've looked through the catalogue and didn't see it. :) If you haven't spotted it yet it's on page 34 in the top left of the page.

Recipe
Wheel: Spring Floral
Ink: VersaMark, Pink Pirouette
Card: Kraft, Whisper White
DSP: Patterns Pink Pirouette
Punches: scallop circle, eyelet boarder, 1 1/4" circle ( for the back of the flower)
Tools: wheel guide, mat pack & tool, heat tool
Accessories: silver brads, white embossing powder, buddy

A Challenge or Two.

In just 15 days Stampin' Up! Demonstrators around the world have sold 7524 I (Heart) Heart stamp sets raising $15 048.00 for the Haitian Disaster Relief. Fantastic! If you would like to help click here for details.

Here is a card I made using the colours in this months Colour Coach Challenge. Perfect Plum, Pretty in Pink, So Saffron and Mellow Moss. I've used my new stamp set Razzle Dazzle from the Summer Mini and my new toy the Circle Scissor Plus. (Love it)

I've just realised that this card is very close to this weeks sketch challenge at JUST ADD INK . If you haven't see this blog yet you should check it out, the cards the Design Team create are amazing. So my card is turned to the side and the circle is to the right a bit but I think it's close enough to enter. :)

Stamp Set: Razzle Dazzle
Ink: VersaMark
Markers: Perfect Plum, Pretty in Pink, So Saffron, Mellow Moss
Card: Perfect Plum, Pretty in Pink, So Saffron, Whisper White
Tools: Circle Scissor Plus

I hope to get a few more challengers done this weekend, we'll see.
