Orange Flower Thinking Of You Card

As we get close to moving to our next location, I wanted to work on some cards, but did not want to make a big mess. I thought if I just use one set of stamps, no dies and pick one style of embellishing I could keep the mess to a minimum. I plan to send these out to my card crafting buddies so wanted to keep them nice and flat for mailing.

Armed with the stamp set by Stampin' Up - Summer Silhouettes, ribbon and rhinestones I was set to see what I could create. I am not sure the order of creation because I worked on a chunk of them, then moved on to make a few more. This one happens to be DH's second favorite. I did use a dots embossed white background that I found laying in my stuff ready to go. 

For this project, I chose Stampin' Up inks - Cucumber Crush and Watermelon Wonder. I always color white ribbon to match and for this color combo I chose Copic Sketch Y18.

Sentiments came from Snippets by Penny Black. I used my Misti to ensure accurate placement of each element. The mat is recollections colored cardstock. 

I am entering this project in the following challenges:

• Simon Says Stamp - Monday Challenge - Circles (dots background)
• Simon Says Stamp - Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes
• Come And Get It - Anything goes
• Card Maniac - #93 Buttons and/or bows
