I think this is now the third time I've paper pieced a Purple Onion Designs image for a CAS-ual Fridays challenge. I really need to change it up a bit but when I made this card on Monday I was in need of bright cheeriness and this card did it for me! The challenge this week at CAS-ual Fridays is to use ribbon. That is something you rarely see on my cards despite the large quantities of it that can be found in the Craft Cave... However, I pulled out this fun red fibre to add to the plant pot. I love the fuzziness of it! And since I needed bright cheeriness I knew that the challenge at Jay Gee's Nook was perfect as the inspiration photos are full of rainbow goodness. Cardstock: (White) Bazzill
Stamps: Purple Onion Designs
Inks: (VersaFine Onyx Black) Tsukineko, (Cherry Cobbler) Stampin' Up
Patterned Paper: (Cherry Cola, Orange Cream, Lemon Drop, Fuzzy Navel, Deep Blue from Lime Rickey collection) Basic Grey
Ribbon: (Adornments Fun Fibres) EK Success
keep 'em coming...they're magnificent.

ReplyDeleteI like your POD creations because each one of them comes out so dang good!
ReplyDeleteTotally adorable! I can see why you went for the brights with this funky flower, it's perfect!
ReplyDeleteI am glad you didn't go 'all out' with the ribbon. It wouldn't be a Jen card, otherwise! Me ... on the other hand ... rarely makes a card without ribbon! :) Hugs xxx
ReplyDeleteFabulous colours and paper piecing Jen - love this card. Thanks so much for joining us at Jay Gee's :)
ReplyDeleteI love how you tied the ribbon around the pot. So, so sweet Jen!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a perfect pick-me-up card! What, I'm not the only one with way more ribbon than I would ever need? (And yet, never quite the right one when I do need it?) :D
