You're Special - FMS Challenge 184


It's been quite grey here over the last few days but in between the rain, and occasional sleet, the sun has been shining so I thought I would go for some nice sunshine-y colours.

As soon as I saw this Freshly Made Sketches Challenge I knew what I would like to do. Originally it was to be a large tag with three largish flowers but once I got into playing around with that idea the more it morphed into this finished card.

I used the Couture Creations Exotic folder and teamed it up with a Sizzix foliage stamp & die as I thought they had a similar look about them.  The blooms are also from a Sizzix Framelits die and stamp set. As with FMS 183 I've used a Promarker to colour and to co-ordinate the cardstock and ribbons.

My son has decided that it's just right for his Aunty Anne's Birthday this weekend!
