It's been a very long time since I've written on my blog, and I resolve to get back to doing this on a regular basis. I always enjoyed doing card challenges to get me motivated and inspire me. I had a lot of health issues last year that kept me away from my crafting, but I am feeling great and am anxious to resume life as I love it. So, last couple weeks I spent preparing samples for our Stampin' Up! open house, and now it's time to blog and share a few with you.

love her projects, and decided it was about time I show her what I have to share, too. So, this was a card that I made for the challenge and posted just under the deadline tonight. I used one of my favorite color combinations that was suggested this week by
CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge #107 to use Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake and Basic Black. I also got inspiration from another challenge from
the Friday Mashup Challenge 193 to
Create a project with the "Triple Layer Technique", Create a project that's "Floral", or Mash it Up! and create a "Floral Triple Layer Project". I think it was accomplished with this card. Hope everyone likes it.
STAMP SETS: Petal Potpourri, Petite Petals, Hello Life
PAPER: Stacked with Love DSPstack, Crumb Cake, Real Red
INK; Cherry Cobbler, Basic Black
EMBELLISHMENTS: Candy Dots Naturals
Stop back again!
