Flowers Times Two

I got the Florals Embellished cartridge this weekend.  I couldn't wait to get started with it. 

For the first  4.25 X 5.5 card (with the orange oval) I chose the flower on page 37.  It is cut at 4.25 inches.  I added some purple gems to the center.   The oval was cut from the Art Philosopy cartridge from page 42 and is cut at 5 inches, then I ran it through the Cuttlebug with the Swiss Dots folder.
I added the ribbon and decided it needed something else.  So, the butterfly is a Martha Stewart punch to which I added some black marker and then sprinkled with Stampin' Ups Dazzling Diamonds.
I am going to enter it at

Cardz TV Challenge #108- May Day (flowers)
Critter Sketch Challenge #115 - Flowers
For the 2nd card I chose the flower from page 21.  It reminds me of a Passion Flower.
This flower is also cut at 4.25 inches. For the center I added a Megan Elizabeth Sparkle Lightz in a color called Lush which is a very deep purple and is in the 8mm size.  I added some Stickles and placed it on an Action Wobble .  I used my Martha Stewart Trellis Loop Trim punch for the "ribbon" at the top.  I felt it needed another element so I added a couple of the butterflies with the Martha Stewart punch.

Bunny Flourish

I made this card for a couple of challenges.  This is a 4.5 X 5.5 card.  The bunny is from Kate's ABCs on page 34 the Phrase Shift image cut at 2.5" Real Dial Size.  The ovals are from the Art Philosophy cart page 42 cut at 1.75 and 2 inches.  The squares were cut out with a Paper Studio punch and measure 1 9/16".  The flourish is from the Cindy Loo Cartridge from page 40.  I cut 2 of them at 2" and trimmed the bottom of one and put them together to make it as tall as I wanted.  (My laptop was downstairs and I was too lazy to go get it and do it on Cricut Craftroom, so I did it the old fashioned way!).  I added 3 pink flowers and 3 pink pearls to finish it.

I am posting this card for the following challenges:

Cindy Loo - Flourish

 I have chosen any of the flourishes from the Cindy Loo cartridge. I love flourishes they are so versatile and always give such an elegant touch to a project . Don't worry if you don't own Cindy Loo you can use a flourish from any cart and so many have the most beautiful flourishes to choose from, so join us in our challenge this week as we would love to see your fabulous creations!

 

I enjoyed combining these 3 challenges and am happy with the way this card turned out.
