Enough about all the chaos at my house.....on with the card! This card is inspired by this week's SFYTT Challenge . It was such a fun looking sketch that I decided to get out my brand new Haiku DSP and since I went that far - why not make it Tangerine Tango based??!! Orange is NOT my normal colour, but it seems to work!! :) I used a Tangerine base, layered with So Saffron and the Haiku paper. The main panel is more Tangerine, Saffron and the flip side of the Haiku paper. I punched the bottom of the Tangerine with the SU Scallop Edge Punch and then tied some white grosgrain ribbon around it all. Then I grabbed some orange and yellow flowers and in the centre I've used my 1 5/8th circle Just Rite Stamper and the 10 Designer Centers and Borders to stamp the sentiment. The sentiment has been cut out using circle nestabilities. Then I finished off with some gold swirl clips and gold brads for the the other flower centres. I think it looks like a pretty cheerful birthday card - what do you think?
Stamps - Just Rite (10 Designer Centers and Borders)
Paper - Tangerine Tango, So Saffron, Old Olive, Haiku DSP
Ink - Orange versacolor
Accessories - Flowers (Bag of Blooms - Papercraft), circle nestabilities, gold swirl clips, gold brads, white grosgrain ribbon.
That's all for today, here's hoping the drama settles down and I get the chance to play more often!! Thanks for visiting!! :)
