The big Primas featured here have been in my stash for a long time. I had not a clue how pretty they are. Actually, only the top one is a prima; the blue one is from SU - it didn't turn out the way I wanted when I colored it, so I had to cover it up with another flower - that's where the aqua prima came in. The image on the lower right is from the retired mini catalog set called bar codes. I wish they would come out with MORE of these in other themes!! I love them! Behind the bar code image is the paper that inspired my blue/black card for Lindsey's challenge last night. It is like a BasicGrey paper. All smudgy, and layered with colors and images atop one another. They were all edged with my chalk inks, and then set on top of a panel of dotted brown(maybe its burgundy?). The card base is Soft Sky, and certainly celery. Ribbons are from American Crafts & SU stitched edge. The center of the Prima is a big thick glue dot covered in Brown glitter from Martha Stewart...it is so sparkly!! Oh, did you notice the little photo turn? It was in my WeRMemory keepers stash....there's a story behind that order but I won't bore you with it. It's on my blog if you are interested.

Another great combination of layers and embellishments! Great use of the bar code set - I spent a lot of years in retail and I think this set is really cool! Beautiful layering on the flower and fabulous ribbon choice!
