todays challenge is called favourites... this stamp set is not necessarily my favourite one, but it was purchased for me a week ago by my friend, Sophie Lafontaine... Thus, I thought I should use it... Now, I am not totally liking this card but I remember years ago that somebody had made a similar card and I really liked it... I should have put it in my favourites and did not...So, this is done from memory. After stamping musical score, I used die cut to make it look like a frame and placed scored and sponged piece in centre... I then stamped flowers and fussy cut them, restamped flower portion in regal rose, fussy cut it and placed it on top of soft suede.....I then added stickles to flowers...Now I ask you why I did this, but I stamped the musical note on cs and fussy cut it to place on sentiment panel...I should have just stamped directly onto panel... after sponging all pieces, I put card together....
Thanks for taking a peek... Hope you like it...

I think this is a really fun design. I like how it looks..I get what you mean about the fussy cutting..well you'll just remember next time that you want to stamp it and save the cutting for something else. I like the greeting (perhaps it should say Stamp with passion)

It is a lovely card, Marie-Alice....and a lovely and thoughtful gift from your friend, Sophie. I like the neutrals as a back drop for your deep pink flowers(I love that Regal Rose color).

Since you are asking me why you did the note this way, I know why, because you do fussy cutting SO well and it comes naturally to you! ; ) Mystery solved! I Love your new stamp from Sophie, Alice! The red just pops so nicely against the neutrals! You are very blessed to have a stamping buddy in your life!
