This week's challenge at the Play Date Cafe is beautiful! Here's the link to play along, and here's the inspiration photo:
You don't see red paired with orange too often, so this was a bit of a challenge. I've seen a lot of designers using white panels on white card bases lately, and haven't tried it yet. I gave it a try with this challenge and here's how it ended up:
I used the Vineyard Impression plate from Papertrey Ink on the card base, and cut the panel for the flowers on a 4x4 square. After I stamped the flowers, I added some holographic embossing powder to the images to give them a bit of shimmer. The bow is made from Orange Zest satin ribbon and the little tag is from PTI's Tiny Tags set and die.
I'm considering a couple of other cards with this color combo, but have to take a nap first before I attempt them!
Thanks for visiting My Happy Place!

Beautiful, Lee Anne! Just like you!
I have been thinking about you today...I wanted to call this morning, but then I realized it was like 7am Texas time...and well, it just would have been wrong to do that to you. :)
So I will try to call you later in the week. I hope you and Rustin had a wonderful day together.
Happy Mother's Day, Sweet Friend!!

Beautiful card. The life flowers are your dabs and they work so well with the white on white. Very pretty.
Love the colors you used with the life set!
I'm a big fan of naps, Lee Anne! Glad someone else out there is doing it too. ;)
