Always

Yesterday, I spent some time doing online challenges with two friends, Lisa and Mary! I had a blast joining them...they have done this frequently in the past, but it was my first time. We selected sketches, then a color combination, stamp set or accessory to use with that sketch. It was interesting to see how similar two would be...maybe using the same color values, or picking the same stamp set to use...but not the same two of us all the time!

For this card, we used the sketch layout and needed to use the stamp set Always. This was the one that Mary and I used similar color values. The color combination I used was Not Quite Navy, So Saffron, Mellow Moss and Purely Pomegranate. I decided to dress up the scallop along the bottom with one of the circle flowers in the set. It is difficult to see, but I did pierce the centers of each of the scallop flowers. One of the new Stylized Silver Hodgepodge ribbon slides is placed with the Pomegranate DS ribbon. I also used Glossy White for a more vibrant look to the bird and leaves. I really liked this layout and will be using it again soon!

A couple of the cards we did, I will save until after my classes next week and then share them with you. I want my class members to be surprised!

Enjoy your Sunday!
