Happy Friday!!! Woohoo for the weekend!! :-) It feels SO good to be back in my stamp room again!! So...without further chit chat I want to share with you the card I made for Beate's Weekend Sketch challenge #59!
I started with some of my absolute favoritest patterned paper...Bella Rose (Stampin' Up!). For my three panels, I stamped some of the flourishes and butterfly fromInkadinkado's Bohemian Flourishes in Chocolate Chip ink onto Neenah Natural White c.s.. I embossed the butterfly stamp in Riding Hood Red, cut it out, and glued it over the Chocolate Chip one (I do love browns...but not for butterflies LOL!). I also wanted to add a little more color...so I embossed one of the small flowers several times using Pink Pirouette ink (stamped on cream paper they almost look more peach than pink :-), cut them out, and glued them randomly onto the flourishes. For the scalloped circle sentiment, I embossed the "Thank You" stamp from Inkadinkado's Expressions set in Chocolate Chip directly onto the patterned paper. For the finishing touches, I added some rhinestones, brads, & ribbon. :-)

I hope you have a wonderful Friday!! ~Laurie
