Celebrate!

Hi Everyone!!!

Today I finished up a card I made and did NO stamping at all.....!

Can you believe it?  Me either...

Will I challenged myself to do two things...

1. No stamping (very hard to do)
2. Use Creative Memories only (almost)

and I think I succeeded...you be the judge.

I know, I know it's not my usually colors but it is really pretty in person, hope that shows thou for you to see too.

Here's the front. 

I used a piece of scrap CM paper I had from the old paper series called Gazabo (2006-7 I think).  Then I used Delight Paper Ribbon at the top and bottom.  For the flower I used both the Delight Paper Flowers and a die cut flower from Fun & Fab.  All these were layered on a background of CM-Espresso brown.  The Celebrate! tag at the bottom came from the Fun & Fab die-cut set and I cut a border sticker with the word Celebrate and put that on the tag.  I did use 2 Non-CM brads on the tag too. 

Both the Tag and the Flower were poped up to give it a little demition.  I also used CM-Brown Chalking ink on all the edges of everything.

 Here's a close up of the front.......

and here's the inside.  I used more of the Delight Paper Ribbon down the side and 2 corners from the Fun & Fab die-cut pack.  I also used the yellow center frome the Fun & Fab set then placed a vellum quote from Expressions of Her.

Even thow this was out of my comfort zone not to do any stamping I did enjoy the chalange and happy with the results too. 

What do you think, Honestly???

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!
