Slide on over to the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/ and check out the beautiful sketch that Miss Priscilla has created for us this week. I selected my papers, Cuttlebugged the teal triangle and arranged them like the sketch, then I start thinking what image do I want to use this week?? I have not used SU! Fifth Avenue for awhile. I stamped the daisy like flower in clear and embossed it in gold. Colored them with markers and cut them out. Stickle were applied to the centers. Two size scalloped ovals from Nestibilities and also the center of the Fleur de Lis die were added. I punched three strips with my Fleur de Lis punch from EKSuccess. Now, what to put around the flowers, Martha Stewart branch punches came to mind. Also I put some little cream Prima flowers and added some tiny gold flowers from the bridal department of Hobby Lobby. A couple of flourish die cuts and a few pearls, decorate the envelope to match and VOILA!!

Dear Phyllis~
This is WONDERFUL! I love everything you have chosen to do! The flowers
look magnificent! I love the punch on the bottom of the card. All of the textures and rich colors are just incredibly rich looking.
I hope you are having fun and enjoying life. I wish we still
chatted from time to time. I know what a busy woman you are, however.
Have fun with what you are doing!
