Hi there! I made a little time today to play in the new Viva La Verve challenge over in the Verve Forum on Splitcoaststampers! Amber has us walking through some GORGEOUS kitchens this month and the sketch is FAB!! If you're not familiar with Viva La Verve, you can check out all the details here.
I chose the very bold black, white and red kitchen (third one). I drew my inspiration from the colors and the beautiful black and white checkered floor! I used the brand new set from Verve called Feel the Sun. I stamped the larger flower twice in Memento Tuxedo Black, colored them with Copic Markers and popped a portion of the second one on a dimensional. The DP is Bitty Box Basics from Papertrey Ink. I used a decorative brad for the center of the flower. The sentiment was cut out with Ribbon Tag Trio (Spellbinders) and the ribbon is Pure Poppy Satin from Papertrey. I really love the clean look of this card.
That's all for now! I hope you have a great weekend!!

simply gorgeous, Jackie!!! I love the black and red and your gorgeous flower :) The brad is a great idea for the middle of the blossom :) The green leaves really pop! When I had made my card for this week, my new stamps hadn't arrived yet, but they did yesterday ....I was so excited I had to make a card right away and post an extra one on my blog :)
