I FINALLY got For All You Do a little while ago and I haven't had a chance to ink it up until I made this card. And something completely shocking happened - I actually made this card, from start to finish, without starting over and redoing anything. Can you believe it? I can't - that never happens, believe me. I stamped the flowers in Regal Rose, Garden Green, and Certainly Celery ink and then cut them out by hand. You know how I am with my bling, so I added some Taylor's Tiny Twinkles to the flower centers.
Edited to add: The card is a piece of 6-1/2" cardstock folded in half.
The Sweet Sunday Stampers also have samples to show you today, so don't forget to stop on by to see:
Now it's your turn! Have fun!

recipe -
stamps: for all you do (SU!)
ink: regal rose, garden green, certainly celery (SU!)
paper: kraft, whisper white, bashful blue card stock (SU!)
accessories: taylor's tiny twinkles (taylored expressions), certainly celery 5/8" grosgrain ribbon (SU!), scallop edge punch (SU!), stampin' dimensionals (SU!)
Edited to add {again}: I'm sick and tired of Mr. Linky - he doesn't come to work most days and I have to make my own code for these posts. Sooooo... I found a new linking site Simply Linked and this is what I'll be using from now on. You can enter your website/gallery below.
Thanks everyone - the challenge is closed.

ReplyDeleteThis was quite different, but that's what a challenge is, right? Anyway, thanks for doing this. It gives us all a chance to create without having to think of how to put it on a card.
