52 Cards challenge 2014 - Week 3

Here is the sketch which is the inspiration starting point for Week 3 of the 52 Card Challenge:

 

And here is the card I produced.

 

 

I swapped the sketch around, to make it work for the card elements I was using. 

 

 

Most of the elements came from the pile of punched and stamped elements my mother made when she came to the UK a couple of years ago.  I pulled the ribbon through the middle of the blue punched out piece and then used the little bits glued in the middle of the large flower.  I used my tan Promarker to match the journalling mat and the inside of the flowers.

 

I recently purchased two small circle punches and that tiny butterfly one - I don't regret it for a second, as they're a staple and I have already used them enough to justify their purchase.  I finally cut into a small doily and used it here. 

 

I hated that piece of 12 x 12 paper when it was whole, but now split up onto cards, I have grown to quite like it! I think it was from a K & Co stack. 

 

Supplies:

K & Co Patterned paper

Kraft card



Doily
Stardust Stickles
Cream ribbon
Fiskars circle and ribbon punches
Tan Promarker
Flower buttons
