I was trying to use this doodle flower piece that I had previously watercolored (Doodle This from the upcoming SU Spring mini catalog, punched out with Marvy Giga Scalloped Circle) and happened to catch this week's Color Challenge over at SplitcoastStampers. It wasn't until I finished the card and rechecked the challenge that I realized I had used Rose Red instead of Cranberry, but I think it's close enough -- how about you?!! Other cardstock colors are saffron and celery.
Having a bunch of leftover scraps from this season's Stampin' Up! Sell-a-bration scrap kit, I realized they were exactly the colors of my flower and decided to throw them together and this is what I came up with!
The scrap kit's printed paper made this design come together very nicely, since the colors are already coordinated for you. The little "happy" piece is a sticker from the kit -- I just added some brads and put it on dimensionals. The celery photo corner is also a sticker.
Doodles from this stamp set (LOVE them!) were stamped on the rose red card base in rose red classic ink. Glitter finishes off the flower (of course, what is a card without a little bling? LOL!). This card is going out to a sweet stampin' friend whose birthday I missed this month and I hope she forgives me for being late!
