The Paper Players Challenge #779 - JUGS #817

I haven't spent much time in my studio lately but had a few items front and center on my desk... I found they were just the ticket for The Paper Players #779 Tic Tac Toe board game - specifically the top left to bottom right diagonal line!

 

Die cut - flowers - and layers!

Hope they like it!


Concord & 9th's Just Picked was cut from some Scrapbook.com bright Joyful papers
and layered up inside SSS's Scalloped Arches and Frames die sets.


I do love scallops - and using a panel of white cardstock allowed
me to use the 'leftovers' which I've added texture by way of
SU! Subtle Texture.

Another new Betterpress-ed sentiment and my rainy day was made
to feel a bit sunny!  Thanks, Paper Players!  OH!  JUGS #817 wants us to play with
dies, too?  Happy to oblige!  I hope my blooms are Spring-y enough!

I really love the colors here, Michele. I just love all the white, the scallops, the detail on the vase, and your beautiful cosmos are they?? Just a wonderful, very spring-y creation!

That bold blue is really striking, especially contrasted with the white and the strong orange flower. Love the subtle texture of the card front too. Thank you for sharing with us at The Paper Players.

Those blooms look like spring to me! This is extra pretty, Michele. Thanks for sharing it with us at Just Us Girls! I just got my SSS scalloped arches in the mail today. Can't wait to play with them!

What a stunning creation, Michele! I love how you framed the vase and flowers with the scalloped arch. This shade of blue is so vibrant and makes a beautiful backdrop for the amazing die cut flowers. Thank you for playing in my challenge at The Paper Players this week!

Isn't that just gorgeous! I love using solid colors and colored cardstock as is, and this looks so fabulous. Great job as always!

Bold and beautiful. This card is really sweet.

Wowza, I am quite impressed with that bold blue background, to say the least! But your gorgeous flower and pretty embossed vase really pop right off that background! Lovely arch as well---I would say you nailed that tic-tac-toe diagonal perfectly! Thanks for playing with us!

Oh I do love me some brights Michele - and this card is simply jumping off the screen with colour! Not to mention the gorgeous textures and layers (my all time favourite EF there too!) - this card is a triumph and I'm so pleased you shared with us over at The Paper Players this week!

The blue and orange play off each other beautifully, Michele, and make a vibrant Spring card. Thanks for sharing it with us at Just Us Girls.

I'm loving the look of unadulterated cardstock a lot these days, and you have some color collections that work so well together. Love me some orange and it always looks great with blue. The arch, scallops, and Subtle texture make a beautiful setting for your flower & vase!

Claire Broadwater said...

So vibrant and beautiful Michele. Love this combination of colors with that beautiful orange bloom against that lovely blue background. Really pretty with the scallop arch and white vase.
