Happy Saturday! I had a little bit of time in my crafty space supposedly cleaning it to make a card. I am playing along with a few blog challenges for this card. I am playing along with Papertrey's Make It Monday Challenge. This week is randomly stamped backgrounds.
I am using the sketch from this week's Seize the Sketch. My inspiration came from this week's The Ribbon Reel Challenge. Love the bold contrast with the chevrons and the flowers. I am playing A Passion for Papertrey's Challenge, too! The challenge is 3 embellishments. I used ample restraint and ONLY used three clear gems in the center of my flowers. So hard! LOL!
I am using PTI's With All My Heart stamp set and the Limitless Layers Hearts dies. I mixed harvest gold, raspberry fizz, hibiscus burst inks for flowers and simply chartreuse for leaves. I used Memento tuxedo black for sentiment. I also used PTI rustic white and true black card stocks. MFT chevron dies. I topped the focal flowers with a few clear gems.
As always thanks so much for stopping by!

LURVE!!
