Raspberry Suite Color Challenge - Week 9


Today's our official first day of summer vacation... LOL, too bad for my daughter it only lasts two weeks because she'll be heading off to summer school on the 30th! Poor kiddo! :)

This is the card I created for the most recent Raspberry Suite Color Challenge: leafy green, black and cream. Not my usual colors, but a very fun combo! This little card measures 4" round, so it would be great as a little notecard. I cut out two flowers with my Slice using the Noteworthy cartridge, and then used my Cricut to cut out the 3" New Leaf circle. The Vintage Cream circle was punched out with my Marvy Mega Circle Punch, and then stamped with the flourish before before stamping the Versamark dots (and heat embossing).

I stamped the sentiment around the edge of the New Leaf circle, and then added some clear rhinestones. To finish up, I assembled everything and added a bow, flower and button.

Have a great one!
