Hello friends. I have a new birthday card made for the Color Hues Challenge - Red & Black.
ETA: My card was chosen as one of the Rockers at Watercooler Wednesday challenge.
I used some new goodies from Spellbinders - Be Bold Blooms for the red flowers and black centers. I added Wink of Stella to the black centers and the edges of the flower petals. The open leaves are from SU Artistic Dies. I cut them apart and placed them under the flowers where I thought they looked best. The sentiment is stamped in Real Red using Waffle Flower Essential Sentiments stamp and die set. I mounted it with foam tape to a white panel embossed with SU Pine Planks EF. The black gingham paper is from a Recollections pad and the scallop border is cut with a SU die.
I will link to the Watercooler Wednesday challenge - All About Occasions.
and to The Paper Players - Tic Tac Toe Challenge (I use the diagonal row bottom left to upper right corner)
ETA: My card was chosen as A Cut Above at The Paper Players.
Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful day.
Happy Stamping,
JoAnn

I love your mix of elements with the bold red flowers and the open leaves! I've had the Be Bold set on my wishlist for awhile but I waited too long because it's sold out everywhere. Probably because of your inspiration with this card and the pastel one.
