It’s Saturday and time for our Create with Connie and Mary Blog Hop. This week our theme is “Let’s Get Sketchy”.  We are to pick a sketch and show it, along with a card that we made using that sketch idea!  Here’s the sketch I chose.

 

SIMPLY ZINNIA

Simply Zinnia is a new stamp suite of products coming out on March 5th!  Demonstrators were able to preorder and I’ve had SO much fun creating with them!  I LOVE the bold colors in the DSP!  I mainly used the Designer Paper and Dies on this card…except for the greeting!

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Lemon Lolly cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
• The 2-3/4 x 4-1/2 piece of Flowering Zinnias Designer Paper was added towards the right side.
• A 3 x 3 piece of Basic White cardstock was added on top.
• Another 2-1/2 x 2-1/2 coordinating piece of Flowering Zinnias DSP was added on top.
• Then a 1/2 x 3-1/4 piece of Lemon Lolly cardstock was added across the front.
• The two flower petals were cut twice for a total of four flower petals from Basic White cardstock, the center from Melon Mambo and the flower center ring from Lemon Lolly cardstock, and two leaves from Lemon Lime Twist cardstock.  The flowers were adhered together and “fluffed” and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• The greeting was stamped with Memento Black Ink on 1/2 x 2 Melon Mambo and added with a Stampin’ Dimensional.
• Three Shiny Adhesive Backed Sequins were added to the background.

 

Loved this sketch and how my card turned out!  OK, next up on our blog hop is our Create with Connie and Mary website, then on to creative Mary Brown, or head backwards to see Melissa Davies’ fabulous project and see what everyone did with this challenge!
