Here is my card for today's ways to use it challenge, which was to decorate your corners.
I just got this Fresh Bloom flower stamp today! I have been hunting for it for a while now, so I was thrilled to find it and thought it would be perfect for my card. This card is actually inspired by my daughters bikini that she was wearing today! Anyhoo, I digress!! Stamped the flower in chocolate chip and then watercoloured it with cool caribbean using my blender pen. The middle has crystal stickles on it, though it is hard to see in the pic. I don't have the photo corner punch yet (it's in my order that will be here next week) so I made these ones using chocolate chip cs. The little blue brads are pretty darn close to cc and I thought they were perfect for the corners. The card base is cool caribbean and the dp is from my stash of MME wild asparagus. You can't really see in the photo, but I used my fiskars corner embosser/punch on the dp. The ribbon is from a gift bag that I had! This was a fun challenge and I actually am pretty happy with the way my card turned out (for once!!) TFL
