bright flowers...

Hey there!  Hope you are having a lovely weekend!  This week has been a little crazy and I have not had much time to craft... boo hoo!  But it was all for several good things... celebrating my youngest's birthday and helping to put together (and take down) the 5th grade party for the aforementioned child and his classmates.  They had a fabulous time and are now officially middle schoolers!  Now that things I have calmed down (a little... it is summer after all, lol) I found some time to make a card for a two challenges:  Color Throwdown and CAS(e) this Sketch.   I purchased the sweet Altenew stamp set Folksy Florals quite sometime ago, but have not had the chance to use it so I pulled it out to make my card.  I stamped the flowers using coral, yellow and blue inks and the leaves in green.  Die cut everything with the matching dies and then arranged everything on a white cardstock panel that I die cut with the largest AJVD rectangle backdrop die.   The sentiment is from the Altenew Trigonometry stamp set and was embossed in white on the black cardstock, trimmed down and adhered.  I love the clean and simple look of the design!


Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend!  Thanks for stopping by!

Supplies:  Cardstock:  Stampin Up! white; Stamps:  Altenew; Dies:  Altenew and AJVD; Inks:  Stampin Up, Catherine Pooler, VersaMark; Embossing powder:  Hero Arts

June is a fun month for your kiddo with his BD & end of the school year! Glad the party was a success--neat you're so involved! So I'm guessing he spent BD money at the antique store. Fun florals & perfect for that color combo--love the card, Rosemary!
