fresh & fun

Today’s challenge was super easy for me. Sunday’s relatively new challenge always features a fellow SCS stampers. The challenge is to case that person’s work, but to change at least two things. This week the featured Stamper is Kelly, aka. Atomicbutterfly. I love her work!

Here is the card I cased for my challenge card:  Lively Little ones.  I just loved the layout of this one. I am hooked on designer paper and I love square cards. So this one jumped right out of her gallery for me.

I started out with a 5 1/4″ square Regal Rose Card base. I added a 3/4″ strip of the yellow flower designer paper from the Petals & Paisleys pack on the top and paper pierced the bottom. Next I added a 2″ wide strip of Au Chocolat designer paper. The 3″ teal/caribbean square is from the Petals & Paisleys pack again.

All stamps are from Because of you and stamped with brown stazon. I colored the images in with Regal Rose,  Certainly Celery and So Saffron Markers. I added shadows around the flower with Cool Caribbean ink and the aqua painter.  The petals of the smaller flower are colored with white gel pen. I also added white highlights to the saffron flower.

The paperclip and the brad are from the Antique Brass hodgepodge hardware set.
