Midnight Madness- Flower Fancy

It felt so good to be able to sit down and work on my projects this week. The past two weeks have been crazy and not really my own. I have been trying to get ready for two events that I have been planning in addition to the three technique classes that I held this past week. Add that to making room for my daughter to move back in until she and her husband find an apartment near her new job. You have a crazy crazy couple of weeks. So now that I can breathe again, I sat down and worked on this challenge. I have been wanting to use this stamp set "FLOWER FANCY" for a while but just have not been able to find the right card to use it on.This card just seemed to fall into place. First I just love the new "COTTAGE WALL DESIGNER PAPER"! The color combination in the paper is beautiful. I used the new Orchid Opulence for the base of the card. I then mounted a piece of the Cottage Wall DSP onto a slightly larger piece of Rich Razzleberry cardstock an placed that onto the base. Then I stamped the flower on to Whisper White with Staz- On and colored in the flower an leaves using the blender pens. The small trio of flowers are from the same set but I used the two step stamping technique for those flowers.. The background rectangles were run through the big shot to add texture. The ribbon is the new Rich Razzleberry Polka Dotted Ribbon but I used the other side. I thought that the polka dots would be to much for this card. And to finish it off I used the half pearls from the Pretties Kit to add embellishment in the upper corner. All in all, I am happy with the way it turned out. The women that were over at my house on Wednesday for class, really liked this card also. They asked me when they could make this card. The supplies that I used for this card were:

STAMP SET: Flower Fancy
PAPER: Old Olive, Orchid Opulence, Rich Razzleberry, Cottage Wall DSP
INK: Orchid Opulence, Rich Razzleberry, Old Olive, Black Staz-On
ACCESSORIES: Rich Razzleberry Polka Dotted Ribbon, Pretties Kit (1/2 pearls), Dimensionals, Blender Pens, Flourish Texturz Plate, Small Dots Texturz Plate, Big Shot
