Hi my friends! Thanks for popping over! Brian has a fun Sketch for us this week - I happened to have a another 'left-over' to use - don't you just love when that happens? This pretty little bloom [The Stamp Market Petal Perfection] was still on my craft desk from my Inspired By card - too pretty to throw in the recycle bin! What can I say - I LOVE BIG BLOOMS!
I use my rectangular Spellbinder's dies quite often, but the circle version fit the Sketch, and was just what Brian asked for! a quick 'hello' stamped in navy, and another [navy] snippet of card stock is rescued!
Okay, let's go see what my teammates have created, shall we?
Naturally you're invited to join me... and to play along with CTS#376!

You said it, that bloom is too pretty for the recycle bin! Love seeing it make two appearances today!
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty!! I love the use of the circle die and now I am going to have to get this!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's so much fun to use up the "left-overs"...most of us have so many. I know I do. Boggles my mind that you didn't use this gorgeous flower before, though. It's so beautiful. Loving that circle die and navy provides the ideal contrast.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Michele! Gotta love when you have "left-overs", makes for a fast card! Well done!
ReplyDeleteOrange and blue, one of my favourite colour combos, you can't go wrong xx
ReplyDeleteLove the hemstitch as your circle element. So fabulous.
ReplyDeleteAhhh leftovers......so glad that gorgeous flower didn't end up in the compost pile!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful, Michele. Why not send it to The Flower Challenge - navy and one other color?
ReplyDeleteI like this one even more! ❤️
ReplyDeleteSimply beautiful CAS design and even better when you can use leftovers:-) Aren't all leftovers better the 2nd day:-) TFS my friend. Stay safe and Creative. Hugs...Nancy
ReplyDeleteGorgeous bloom, Michele! I love your color palette and that you chose the circle dots for your design...so pretty!
ReplyDeleteIt was meant to be. What a lovely card, Michele! That bloom is SO pretty! And I really like the circle hemstitch die. Gotta remember to pull my dies out and use them. :) Hugs!
ReplyDeleteAnother pretty flower! Love how well it pairs with the navy!
ReplyDeleteI love when that happens! The touches of navy are perfect. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWowza, love that big bold floral...so pretty! And I adore that circular open diecut....adds such a fun background element!
ReplyDeleteBTW, thanks for missing me yesterday at IB....my mind just totally blanked out! Scary!
You had me laughing pretty good with the "I love big blooms" comment my friend...thanks for my morning chuckle! As far as your card...I too am so glad you didn't throw this extra bloom away as it is so pretty and looks just perfect tucked into that little circle with the "hello" and navy strip! Lovely, lovely card Michele!! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteI love your take on the sketch Michele! The bloom is just lovely and works perfectly. Loving that die you used to make the circle, so cute and cool looking! I need me some of those cool dies. lol Love this color combo too, just reminds me of summer! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteStunning! What a perfect take on the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteeeek now I 'need' the circles... it's all your fault lol. This is fabulous Michele!
ReplyDeleteWell - I purchased the rectangle and square set because of you and now I’m gonna have to go back to the well for the hem stitch circles! Great take on the sketch - it was such a great one this week!
ReplyDeleteRachelle : )
How pretty is this card....Stunning large and beautiful bloom and a wonderful colour combination Michele x.
ReplyDeleteThe cool navy is gorgeous with that bold orange, Michele ... and you know how much I love those hemstitch dies ... what a wonderful way to draw the eye to your beautiful bloom! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous take on that sketch. I love those colors together - very bold and fabulous. Awesome design and of course I love those Spellbinders dies. You made me buy them, and I have yet to use the circles. Have to rectify that situation...
