Thinking of You

I wasn't going to do this, but I had absolutely no motivation to stamp today, so I decided that I would show you one of the cards that I made for the Dirty Dozen gallery. If you aren't a fanclub member, the new gallery opened on the 15th and it is well worth the money to join the club and look at these WONDERFUL and TALENTED ladies work. And let's face it, if you use the SCS website even a little you already know that the resources, the forums, and the challenges are worth WAY more than the member fee...so just do it!!
Anywho, after a certain amount of time we are allowed to show our creations on our blogs, and when I decided to do it, I knew this was the first card I wanted to show! I made this card as part of the December Obscure Holidays gallery. My card was for June 12th, which is Red Rose Day...it also happens to be the birthday of my SUPAH cute nephew!! I used the GORGEOUS set from Gina K., A Year Of Flowers. It was designed by my amazingly talented, and fellow Dirty Dozen Alumnist, Melanie Muenchinger. The flowers were all stamped with Stazon and colored with my SU markers....those were pre copic days, lol! I then cut them all out and popped them up. The leaves were made with my Martha Stewart branch punch. I used Chocolate Chip. Old Olive and Real Red. The bottom panel was run through my Cuttlebug with the Argyle folder. The sentiment, from the Gina K. Thinking of You set(Rupa Shevde), was cut out with my Cuttlebug and the label dies from Spellbinders. All my ribbon is from SU, as well as my brads.
Well, that is it for me now! Have a great day!
