Saturday Sketch and Color challenge

For this card I used two challenges:

a sketch and a color challenge.

The sketch challenge is from the

Fresly Made Sketches here

and the color chahellange is from

the Color Throwdown Blog here.

The bold letters are the Alphabet stamps by

Michael Strong and the birthday die cut is

from thinlits by Tim Holtz.

The letters are stamped and embossed with

white embossing powder. Next they are cut with

an oval punch  3/4"x 1 1/2".

The flowers are also by Michael Strong and embossed

with white embossing powder. These flowers have 

matching metal dies to cut them with, but are also 

easy to cut by hand. On each flower is a sticky gemstone.

Thank you for looking

and have a creative day!
