Woodware 1,2,3...

This week's WoodwareUSA Challenge is as easy as 1, 2, 3...
The challenge was to include
ONE ribbon, TWO circles and THREE flowers...
1 ribbon...Check...
2 circles....Check...
3 flowers...Check...

For this A2 sized card I used some bold floral print patterned paper from Scenic Route, pink cardstock and baby blue cardstock and of course, white cardstock. If you look close enough, youc an also see that I used some grass patterned paper from Paper Pizzaz that I paper pieced right under the house. Since the image was so playful, I decided to keep the coloring bold and solid...no shading on this one. I think it fits the image well. (Copics Used R24,R22, Y19, Y06, YG23, B00, BV11, E33) The "sun" fits nicely with the scene and you wouldn't know that it comes from a completely different stamp set! I took my color inspiration from this week's Cupcake Inspiration Challenge #75. I loved the BLUE frosting so the house and the border pulled the deelish blue from the cupcake. All the sprinkles are represented in the various colors presented in the image.

I used two Woodware sets for my card this week. Tiny Frames is a wonderful little inexpensive set that includes 14 stamps in various playful shapes and sizes. I particularly love the "sun" shape, the little flower, the stitched square and the little tags. The second set is called Home Sweet Home. I purchased this set to make some cards for a friend who has just moved. I love the little child-like images and the little piece of grass (that'll be very handy with other stamp sets).
To finish off the card, I doodled the dotty line around the border with a copic multiliner pen to mimic the same line in the sun.
For all those who have participated in the challenge this week, please post a link to your creation in the inlinkz below. You'll have a chance to win a fun little WoodwareUSA gift from me!
