Emily, the regular host of the color challenge at SCS is off having a ROCKIN good time at CHA, so she asked for volunteers to host this weeks color challenge.
Since I have ALWAYS wanted to host one, I jumped at the offer and she said OK!! YAYYY!! I am super duper excited, and I got a big ol box of Stampin Up goodies today, so I was anxious to use them. I still haven't placed a new catalog order, I am waiting for Saleabration, but I had some stuff I wanted to get before it all retired, and the Bella Blossoms set FINALLY made it into my hot little hands....YAYY!! I have been LONGING for this set ever since it came out, and have just now FINALLY broke down and bought it....and I couldn't be happier!! I stamped the flower three times, once in Pacific Point for the base of the flower, once with Baja Breeze and some Pacific Point on the edges, and once with Garden Green for the stem. I used some Muirfield DSP and LOTS of SU ribbon. The sentiment(my new favorite way to do them if you haven't noticed) was created using my tag punches from SU and the middle sized oval. This card is about as close to SUO as I get, but those spiral clips...they are my weakness....like you didn't know!! Anyway, I HOPE you all play along...I can't wait to see what you create!!
