Good morning!! Today's card is doing double duty. It's a Card Pattern sketch and a Curtain Call colour scheme. I couldn't decide whether to use cream or kraft for the main image panel so I made two cards!! I'm using Awash with Flowers again as I loved using it for my Viva La Verve card this weekend. I love filling in the spaces between the flowers with the little leaf stamp...adorable!! After stamping the first card, I realized that the colour call was for white, not cream!!! ACK!!! So I used white satin ribbon to make up for it!!! I actually like mixing white and cream, it's like mixing brown and black or gold and silver...I say go for it!!! LOL
Could anything be yummier than stamping on kraft? I must love it because it's the colour of lattes!! LOL Well, that's it...it's a no staff meeting Monday so I'll be home at a reasonable hour tonight :D Have a lovely day and thanks for stopping by :)
What's in them?
Stamps: SU awash with flowers, messages for mom
Ink: SU kiwi kiss, basic black, PTI raspberry fizz, sweet blush
Paper: SU melon mambo; PTI sweet blush, cream, kraft, spring moss
Accessories: fiskars border punch, nesties labels 4; Michaels ribbon, PTI ribbon, pearls, stitching; SU embossing folder

Such beautiful cards, I love the 2step stamping. My favorite is the first though, perhaps because of the delicate pearls. Fab work!
Great set of cards, Maureen. Just love that set an how you create a background with the images. Fabulous use of this week's Curtain Call colours too - thanks for playing :D
Wow! Two great cards! Don't know which one is better! You really do a nice job on your bows, too! I have a little trouble with these type. Glad you could join the Curtain Call Crew this week!
oh-so cute! They're both so adorable.. I can't decide which I like better.
Maureen this is stunning! What great colors. I love how you made two versions of this, too!!

Oh I love this!
Wow! These are so pretty! :)
these are so pretty Maureen, you have used the colours to perfection! thanks for playing along with us this week! :)
Two for the price of one blog visit - what a bargain! I, too, love kraft, but I don't seem to use it nearly as much as I should - such versatility! Beautiful work on the challenges, Maureen!
Oooh, I am with you on the kraft. Always my first choice but the white is fresh. Both cards are great.
Wow - you really rose to these challenges! This is a beautiful card.
What a wonderful Mother's day card! Great take! Thanks for playing at Card Patterns!
