Always Time for Friendship - PDCC#91

Hello, friends!  I made today's card with two challenges in mind: the current Lucy's Lovely Lines Challenge at Lily Pad Cards blog and the Play Date Cafe Color Splash to make a black and white card with a small splash of one color.  Here's the sketch and the color inspiration:

For my card, I used my Hero Arts Blossom Art set to repeatedly stamp the flower.  I also stamped it onto yellow gingham paper and cut it out to cover one of the flowers.  The sentiment is from the Hero Arts Live Life clear set.  I finished each of the corners with a Marvy notched corner punch. 


Here is a close-up of the button and ribbon on the paper-pieced flower...I colored in each small circle with a fine tip black Sharpie, then added a dot of white with my Inkssentials pen. 


Thanks so much for stopping by...have a great day!

    Judy you are on a roll Babe. I love what you have done with these two challenges. The card is pefect down to a tee. Love your CAS style and sooo love the gingham flower. That sentiment really has been on my list for so long and now I want it all over again. It really does make such a statement. Good luck on these challenges and I think you deserve to win!
