Digi Haven Challenge "Flowers"

Flowers are the challenge at Digi Haven this week. Our sponsor is Floppy Latte and the winner will receive a $6.00 gift certificate. The challenge will last 2 weeks.

I made two cards with the same image: 

Finished Cards: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"

Materials:

Cardstock: (Top Card)White and Gold

(Bottom Card) White, Vellum and Patterned Paper

Floppy Latte Image Black Eyed Susan Floral

Spectrum Noir Markers

Inkadinkado Clear Stamps Expressions (Top)"You're Simply The Best" and (Bottom) "Thinking of You"

(Top) Queen and Co Rhinestones Sunflower Yellow, 1 Large and 2 Medium

(Bottom) Queen and Co Pearls Lavender, 3 Medium

( Top) Black Pigment

(Bottom) Purple Pigment

On the top card, I printed the image on white cardstock, framed it, added the sentiment and the rhinestones...typical way to make a card. On the bottom card, I printed the image on vellum and colored the back of the image. I added the patterned paper to a white card, folded over the vellum over the card, added the sentiment to the front of the vellum and pearls...just a different way to do it. I like the way both of the cards ended up. What do you think? I always like it how different the same image can turn out with just some different colors.

Thinking of You Card

I am fairly new with using the Silhouette Cameo. My husband gave it to me for Christmas, but I was intimidated and left it in the box for months and I do mean months! Finally, I put my big girl pants on and gave it a try....and I LOVE IT! Boy I wish I had opened it earlier. lol There is a blog called Cameo Creations Challenge where all the challenges use the Silhouette machines...either the original SD or the Cameo. I thought I would give it a try. The May Challenge is Mother's Day..."create anything for the mommies you love". 

This is my card:

Finished Card: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"

Materials:

Cardstock: White, Maroon, Gold and Light Blue

Silhouette Cameo

Bugaboo Stamps Cute Bee Flower

Spectrum Noir Markers

Darice Embossing Essentials Honeycomb Background

Inkadinkado Clear Stamps Expressions "Thinking of You"

Black Pigment Ink

Mounting Tape

The bee/flower is single mounted on the honeycomb background.

Now you may think that the sentiment is a little strange for a Mother's Day challenge, however I think it is very appropriate. I lost my mother over 21 years ago (22 in July) and there isn't a day still that I don't think about her. I miss her very much. 

I hope you like my "Cameo Creation". Thanks for dropping by and please leave a comment.
