1 Card, 3 Challenges....



I was inspired by all 3 of these challenges, the Colour Q challenge provided the colour combo & Pals paper arts #80 Challenge & the "JUST ADD LOVE" Challenge at Just add ink both combined for an old world romantic look, perfect for a "Valentines" card....and l couldn't be happier with the finished product!....Although l'm thinking Hubby may not appreciate it as much!

The Rose tutorial can be found here at creative stamping ideas Joanne Leddy has posted a very easy to follow step-by-step for these beautiful flowers and also has some wonderful samples to inspire you.


Supplies:
Bliss-Tiny tags-Well scripted & Extreme elements stamp sets, Music notes wheel.
Crumbcake-Whisper white- Pink pirouette-Early esspresso Ink's.
Crumbcake-Blushing bride-Pretty in pink-Pink Pirouette & whisper white C/stocks.
XL bird- 5 petal flower- XL flower- Boho flower- Spiral border punches.

Have a Great w/end,

NIKKI.
