Hello friends!
Today I have a quick card to share. I made this for several challenges, including the Shabby Tearoom Challenge which was to take inspiration from this photo:
Classic Elegance!
Classic Elegance!
I drew my inspiration from the colors and also the checked patterns. What a pretty kitchen!
I used this month's release from Our Daily Bread designs, Tulip Corner and stamped with Memento ink, and colored with Copics (R14,24,29 &46) and G99, 94 and 82). My card stock is Flourishes. It's very white and I love it! I used Spellbinders Label Thirteen in two largest sizes to create my frame from Basic Black. I used a Sizzix embossing folder (sorry I don't know the name). The ribbon was from my stash. I attempted this week's Double Embossing technique on SCS but failed so my center panel is cut out. I lightly colored the bg with B000 to pop my colors a bit. I also used today's IC274 on SCS.
I also incorporated the following challenges:
Alphabet Challenge - "R" is for ribbons, Delicious Doodles - make the card/project YOU would like to receive, Simply Create - power of flowers, Stampin For The Weekend - Spring, Craft Us Crazy - anything that reminds you of nature, Cute Card Thursday - signs of Spring, Delightful Challenges - welcome Spring, Do You Stack Up? - use anything with green in it, Stamp Insanity - lots of texture, Fab 'n' Funky - spring, Scrapbook Sisters - Spring, Oldie But Goodie Challenge -Spring is in the Air, Paper Take Weekly - Anything goes, Try It On Tuesday - Inspired by a song (Tip Toe through the Tulips... hipie days!), Bunny Zoe's Crafts - Spring - flowers Everywhere!, Crazy Challenge - Here comes spring, Incy Wincy Designs - spring is in the air, Lexi's Creations - Flowers,

Oh my what a lovely card. Colors are delightful. You have me a little worried as I was going to try that embossing showcased at SCS, guess if I try I better allow lots of time for playing with it. TFS
Grace, this card is gorgeous. I've been really wanting to do black and white these days, not quite sure why. But since they aren't 'my' colors, I still have a hard time designing something with them. Your card has opened up lots of ideas for me, so - Thank You!
And thanks for the challenge link. One of the girls is a photography hobbiest and this is the kind of challenge she (and I) like!
Oh! I like the new background, too! Very Spring! =)
