Today starts the last Krafty Girls challenge of the season. This is bittersweet for me. This was my very first Design Team to be a member of, but this also means I made it through all the way. :) I learned a lot, and had so much fun! This weeks challenge was an "Anything Goes" challenge. I had so much fun using some supplies I had been hoarding. I am really happy with the way this card turned out. I had to put it down and walk away a few times, but I think it was so worth it! I love when projects come together, especially when there were more than a few "I'm just going to scrap it" thoughts.
The printed papers are from the Highline paper pade from Basic Grey. The sentiment is a cardstock sticker from the same collection, and yes, there are 4 mats to that sticker. The silver border is a Martha Stewart punch, and it was a foil paper. I felt the card needed some silver to balance out all the brads I added. Don't you love that ribbon? I received it as a gift from a Unity Stamp Co Purchase. I have it in red too :D
I tried to make the flower colors mimic the ones on the bottom corner of the tag. The two smaller flowers are Prima, they were white, but I used inks to dye them. The larger flower was a pack from Hobby Lobby by The Paper Studio, and they also started out white. The gems are also from The Paper Studio. I used Smooch spray for the glimmer :)
I had so much fun creating whatever I wanted, and I hope you all will hop on over to Krafty Girls to share a project of your own. Remember in this challenge Anything Goes, so be creative or just show who you are and most importantly HAVE FUN! I can't wait to see what you guys create :) Thanks for reading!

I am glad you didn't scrap any of the card, it's gorgeous. I love how all of the colors pop off the card, so bright and vibrant. I am so glad that you were on our design team. I would have never guessed it was your first time. Always so professional and had/have great projects to share. Looking forward to seeing more of your work.
