I love it when I've made a card, and it just so happens to fit in a challenge or two!
Carol at Just us Girls #790 is asking for stenciled images, and The Paper Players #753 has a tic-tac-toe board for us this week! I've chosen the top row: Celebration, Flowers, and Stencil...let's see if Joanne will accept 'thanks' as a celebration of friendship as this card wouldn't be possible without one friend in particular!
I couldn't resist some bright bold colors for Marcia's PTI In the Meadow stencil.
She fussy-cut one of those pretty blooms for this card last week - I dug
into my stash and found one of those emboss-and-cut sets from SSS. Those
stenciled blooms reminded me of this Alstroemeria!
Of course, because this was a stenciled creation, it fit Carol's challenge at JUGS, too!
Hope your weekend has been grand!

What an utterly fabulous card Michele! I can't stop looking at it! I love the stencil/diecut combo and the offset embossing. And of course a celebration of friendship counts! Thanks for playing along with my TicTacToe Challenge over at The Paper Players this week!
ReplyDeleteWoah! The colors plus embossing plus die cuts - almost too much to bear! This is absolutely glorious.
ReplyDeleteMichele, the color you used are eye-popping and oh, so luscious! The stenciled background is beautiful, but the die cut alstroemeria is the frosting on the cake, so to speak. Thank you for playing along with us at the Paper Players and sharing your gorgeous card!
