I loved the Sweet Stop sketch last week (2/13/10) the moment I saw it! I also love this flower from Verve Visual's Love's Flower but I didn't have the "perfect" Copic markers to color it as I wanted (note to self: buy more Copics, gosh, so hard to convince myself of these things...NOT!); so I used paper piecing on the first card (can be seen on my blog). I also added a strip of the same DP inside the card to tie it all together.
On this card, I took my inspiration from Laurie's Bucket O' Love (see Verve Gallery) and stamped and embossed the flower onto PTI's Hibiscus Burst (twice) & Sweet Blush (once). I also stamped the flowers with polka dots in matching ink from PTI's Polka Dot Basics. The "Just Because" was stamped in PTI's Dark Chocolate and is from their Damask Designs stamp set.
I wanted to keep the overall card simple with clean lines so I worked really hard not to add a lot to either one! On this one, I distressed all the edges, you can particularly tell on the Dark Chocolate layers. I also mounted each layer of the flower with dimensionals as well as the leaves. The leaves were colored with Copics.
