It’s Thursday and you know that means it is time for a Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge. It’s a bright, cheery color challenge this week!
PAPER FLORIST DIES
You know when you buy something, then only use it a couple times? That’s what happened with my Paper Florist Dies! I don’t think of them because they are stand-alone dies without a stamp set to coordinate with them! But thought they would be perfect for today’s color challenge!
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Sweet Sorbet cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White cardstock was added on top.
- The Masterfully Made DSP was cut with the largest Nested Essentials Die and added to the background.
- The rounded flowers were cut from Sweet Sorbet cardstock, the centers from Daffodil Delight cardstock and the leaves from Lemon Lime Twist cardstock and put together, then added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Thinking of You from Garden Meadow Stamp Set was stamped with Memento Black Ink on 1 x 2-1/2 Daffodil Delight cardstock and the end cut at an angle. It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A trio of Flat Adhesive Backed Pearls were added to the background.
