Colorful

Happy Tuesday!  I've been feeling a bit under the weather yesterday and today, so I'm just going to post a little card from my stash.  This one uses last week's SCS color challenge - {CC285} pacific point, rich razzleberry and old olive, with a dessert option of adding doilies.  I had recently downloaded these Doily Shapes from the Cutting Files, and wanted to give it a go, so I sat down to try to tame these wild colors.


I started by cutting the doilies out on textured pacific point with my Cricut and SCAL software.  Next I added a white Marvy Mega scallop circle punch in between the two layer of doilies and used the Happy Hello set for the circle frame and sentiment in the center.  I made the background paper myself using the flowers and leaves from the new Great Friend set and some pacific point, rich razzleberry and old olive inks.  To dress things up, I added a scallop border, some hotfix rhinestones and a bit of rich razzleberry polka dot grosgrain.

And there you have it - a bit bolder than I normally go, but it's always fun to change things up a bit and get a fresh perspective on stamping!  :)  Hope you have a fabulous day - it's back to the couch for me.
