Isn't Life Beautiful

Happy Tuesday everyone. I have combined four challenges in my card. All are from Splitcoast Stampers. Today's colour challenge CC206 (rose red, kiwi kiss (old olive) and more mustard, plus last weeks sketch challenge SC215, ways to use it challenge WT205 (fabric) and
Limited supply challenge LSC207 (stretch yourself). I used a stamp set from Stampin Up - called Upsy Daisy. I coloured the stamp with more mustard, old olive and pretty in pink with SU markers, spritzed the stamp with water and then stamped onto whisper white paper. Image was cut out used a rectangle nestability, matted with pink and then white scalloped rectangle. The designer paper is from My Minds Eye - Bloom & Grow - vines paper (double sided)- it was a perfect match for the colour challenge. Attached the rhinestone brads. I found a piece of fabric in my stash that I used for my ribbon. I folded the fabric and zig zag stitched the center. Tied it on. Added the rub on sentiment - from Stampin Up. For the limited supply challenge - to stretch yourself - well as some of you know I hardly ever have any white space on my card, hardly ever use rub ons and I almost always sew on my paper... There you have it - 4 challenges in one.

  2. Hey new blogging woman! :) Great job on combining these 4 SCS challenges!! I love how these colors came together here. Love all the white space. (the whole white space thing is really tough for me to do too 'cuz I just never know when to stop adding and always feel like the 'empty' white areas need to be covered with an extra little something). LOL You have left the perfect amounst of white on your card. This is a wonderful design. TFS :)
