I have just finished this card and couldn't wait until Monday to share. So very quickly this is what I have done. I have used the challenge from over at Cuttlebug Challenges #15 we had a sketch to use. I also used the Colour Combination Challenge #202 from Splitcoast Stampers. I used SU Old Olive as the base card, edged with clear versa mark, stamped along the bottom with flourishes (SU Priceless) in clear versa mark. I attached a variety of circles, silver shim, SU Regal Rose, SU Bravo Burgandy, also used Kaiser Craft Rub-ons on some pieces of the shim. I used the cuttlebug embossing folders - Forest Branches, Stylized Flowers, and Swiss Dots. Added buttons and a bit of bling. The dream cirlce I ran through the cuttlebug with stylized flowers and then again on top of the folder to flatten it out. The pink flower is a retro flower paper punch.
I wasn't entirely happy with the card before so I have cut the front off the card and adhered it to the front of a black card so now we have a portrait view. Also added some silver dots around the greeting.
This is super love the detail and the stamped background. Thanks for joining in the Cuttlebug Challenge this week.

Great take on the sketch, love the colours you've used and the detail of the background. I think backing it onto black card makes it stand out a lot more. Thanks for taking part this week!

Wonderful job on the stamped background. Love your color choice too:)
ReplyDeleteVery cool - having two different looks with the same card...just goes to show how the eye can see it so differently. You did a great job with using the different folders to get the elements for the embellishments. Really nice!!
