FS328 Inspired x 4 FRIEND

Photo Details

Poster: gabalot

Here is another card I made to pay tribute to our new FS for this week, Colleen (Smoatsmom). I was first inspired by a white on red pillow at yesterday's IC site, Greenheart.

http://www.greenheartshop.org/eco-su...am-on-red.html

Then I received a reminder that the FMS86 sketch was due tomorrow.

I got some ideas but couldn't make up my mind. Each one of the following two cards in Colleen's galleries, brought together some of the ideas I had for my "friend" card. I took it as "verification" that I should make it. Hee!

A similar shape/layout that I was thinking of:

Age is a Number by Smoatsmom at Splitcoaststampers

Another with a similar layout and colors (I had decided to go w/SU Ruby Red, b + w):

My Sweet Pea's 11th Bday Card by Smoatsmom at Splitcoaststampers

Whew! Thatsalotta inspiration for my very simple CAS card, huh? THANKS FOR LOOKING!

Paper: SU ruby rose, MPad black
Accessories: SU white rubons, PTI matstack dies, MFT lace trim (added a solid strip of black to the edge of the trim because the trim piece on it's own wasn't wide enough)

Don't you just love when all these ideas come together? This is rich and beautiful with the raspberry and black paired.

I am tickled pink that you played along again to honor me this week!
