CTMH--- Paper Flowers Challenge Card

I came across a video tutorial the other night on how to create paper roses from a uber-talented fellow consultant Tracey Mason.  I sat and created several of these right on the spot.  I was looking and waiting for the perfect card sketch to use them on.  You can see her tutorial HERE!

Along came the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge:



I just knew it was perfect!  I could not resist using my favorite color combo of red, black and white on this card, and one of my all-time favorite paper patterns from the Silhouette Creative Basics (retired) pack.

I doubled up on Challenges today for the Heart 2 Heart Challenge- Sentimentally Yours


Check out how cool these flowers look:
I really want to mail this card to a friend of mine for her birthday later this month.... but I'm not sure it would survive in a regular envelope.  I may just keep it in my ever growing stash :)

Supplies used:
All CTMH unless noted:
Tulip Cardstock
Black Cardstock
Colonial White Cardstock
Liquid Glass
Pearl Opaques
Silhouette Creative Basics
Happy Birthday Stamps

Whatever the crafter has chosen as their E element will be featured in their post. If you have just hopped onto my blog, you can start at the beginning at Amber's blog ~ Scrapper's Therapy  If you came from Shelly ~ Just One Piece then you're on the right track! E is for EASTER You may recall a few months ago, I posted a couple layouts from the baby album I am making for my niece.... well she's now 3 months old and I only finished through 4 months!  I have some work to do..... Today I created an Easter Layout using THIS layout as my inspiration.  The Chantilly paper pack is perfectly girly and springy!  I cut two strips of the green pattern, then sliced it up to make it look like grass.  Using Art Philosophy, I cut out a bunch of different eggs in 1 1/2", 1 3/4" and ...
