Petal Parade was still out on my desk from another card, so I went with that as my inspiration.
I got to break out the new Watercolor Wonder DSP for this card. I went through and looked at all the designs and decided on the ones with Daffodil Delight and Tangerine Tango. I cut the strips of paper 3 1/2" x 1/2" and created a banner end with the Hexagon Punch. The sentiment "just because" from A Dozen Thoughts is stamped with Calypso Coral on the fourth banner. The card base is actually Calypso Coral, not Tangerine Tango and it's embossed with the upcoming Sale-a-bration embossing folder called Decorative Dots.
The flower from Petal Parade is done in two layers. The bottom layer is in Daffodil Delight and cut out by hand. I added a little curve to it with my bone folder to give a bit of dimension. The next layer is stamped in Calypso Coral and hand cut out as well. I gave it a little curve with the bone folder and adhered it with a dimensional. I added in an Extra Large Basic Pearl to complete the look I was going for.
This card is bold and happy and very quick to assemble....all things I love! I hope you will join the sketch challenge with me this week and make a card of your own. All the details about participating can be found at Try Stampin' On Tuesday.
