This card is for this week's Featured Stamper, Michelle, JustPaintingAround! She is such a talent and a sweetie too! I know Michelle way back from my PIF days and have loved her work always!!
This card also combines 2 other challenges. This week's Flourishes Tuesday challenge to use embossing and Sharon's stamp simply challenge to mix up the patterns. I embossed the green DP panel and definitely mixed up my dots and strips!!
I chose this card to case. I just loved the layout and her wonderful coloring! I changed the image and colors on my card, but kept very true to her lovely creation!!
I used Flourishes Sweet Peas with Verve's sentiment from Chocolate Bunnies. The DP is Memory Box Sprout -love the gorgeous lavendar and green in it!! The ribbon is double layered with a 1/4" cocoa grosgrain under the brown/white dotted organdy (both from Pinkhedgehog Papercrafts). The image is colored with Copics and then painted with Angel Wings Shimmerz. TFL.
