Here's a card that I made for one of April's Creative Crew Challenges. "Use 2010-2012 In Colors and the sketch for the color focus. Make sure you incorporate your Patterns Designer Series Paper Stack for these In Colors." I hope you decide to play along too!
The main image was stamped with Soft Suede ink onto Crumb Cake cs and embellished with mini pearls. I then stamped the sentiment with Poppy Parade, layered the panel on Soft Suede cs and embellished it with the button brads, ribbon, safety pin and tags. Look closely at the tags, they're each embellished with mini pearls too!
From there, the layers are Poppy Parade Patterns Designer Series Paper, striped embossed Crumb Cake cs and the Poppy Parade card base. I trimmed off 1/2" from the side of the card and added the scalloped piece of Soft Suede cs to finish it off.

Wow, so much great detail on the card! The colors look so good together and the sentiment and image crack me up! I also love the delicate ribbon for a sweet card.

Woo Hoo Regina, you OUTDID yourself on this beauty. I LOVE your use of the colors and they go so well together. The layout is awesome, love the striped ef, ribbon treatment and those wonderful tiny tags with a safety pin - yep, I noticed the little pearls - and what a great way to showcase that awesome image and sentiment together. Kudos for my SUO friend!

Very elegant card. Love your color combination. Love your stampset. Love all the embelishments. The crochet ribbon looks lovely and adds just the right amount of elegance with the tiny tags. The pearls are genius!
Thanks for sharing.
