Flowers and WeRMemory Keepers

Hi - Today's card is for one of the new challenges I have been following, the Card Concept.  You have to put your card into one of six categories, EEEK!  I still don't know what my 'go-to' style is so this is hard for me to do.  

The challenge is to use a floral theme.  I found these really fun WeRMemory Keepers papers and I do mean they are fun.   They are from a collection called Feelin' Groovy, that's just fun by itself!!   You know how much I love double sided papers, well the ones I used today have one pattern on one side and the second side is four different patterns!!!  I LOVE these!   I don't know how old the collection is, I found these at Tuesday Morning, but I still love them.  :)

Here is my card.

The stamp I used is an older one and I think it's from Hero Arts.  I added Prima flowers and sequins.  Oh, I used a fiskars border punch on the far left side.   I am going to put this one into the Clean and Layered category because it still has a lot of white space.   This is a fun challenge that makes me think,  LOL.

Thank You cards are needed for Operation Write Home so I will be making a few of these for my box.

Good Morning! We were supposed to get about 2" of snow Friday night, but we actually ended up with about 5". It was really pretty and light, though. We were supposed to get freezing rain, so I would MUCH rather have the snow. But it did make me chose supplies for a card that have nothing to do with snow :)

This is for the SCS Inspiration Challenge. For this challenge you are given a link to something that has nothing to do with scrapbooking or stamping, it just has cool designs. You are to use that as your inspiration for your project. For instance, this was my inspiration. And this is my card!

I loved the flowers and I thought of this stamp when I started making it. I used Bazzill cardstock, Maya Road Cherry Blossoms and Birds Chipboard set, which I painted and then added some chestnut road chalk ink to the branch and Inkssentials white pen and pearl gems to the flowers. The stamps are from Hero Arts stamped in Rose Coral chalk ink and Versafine Vintage Sepia. Then I tied some May Arts brown wrinkled ribbon on the sides and pop-dotted the sentiment up. I also put some stardust glitter pen on the swirls of the frame stamp, but you can't see them so well in the picture. They add some bling to the card though :)

I'm telling you these challenges are fun and you get to stock up on some cards so you'll have them when you need them :)
