VivaLaVerve


I finally got to stamp alittle today--it has been on of those weeks!!  I decided to make a card for the VivaLaVerve challenge over at SCS.  I loved this sketch and this week the twist was a color combination.  At first I was like--YUCK!! (Summer Sun, More Mustard and Baja Breeze) But as I started to play around with it I fell in love with it.  I think it has a vintage feel to it.  I used Choc. Chip as my neutral.  The flowers are from Verve's Beautiful You set.  I stamped them 3 times--one on Summer Sun and 2 times on More Mustard--I used a More Mustard flower that I had cut out--layered the inside pieces with the Summer Sun flower that I cut apart--and then finished off the flower with the second More Mustard flower center.  It was alot of cutting but I love the way it turned out.  On top of the cut out center I added a brad to tie in with the Baja Breeze.  The flowers are layered on a Baja Breeze panel that was Cuttlebugged and sponged. I layered that on some patterned paper separated by some Choc. Chip ribbon.  All the edges are sponged in Choc. Chip.  I will just have to use this sketch again!! I loave how it turned out!!
