We've had a rather lazy day today but I made it into the Craft Cave for a couple of hours and managed to finally put together the card I've been thinking about for the colour challenge at Paper Smooches Sparks. When I first saw the new Space Cadet set I thought the rocket flames would make good flames for birthday candles and also lovely flower petals. (Kim also mentioned these as flower petals in this post). I finally got around to making a flower with them and for the flower centre I used the porthole from the spaceship. I love how Paper Smooches stamps are so versatile this way! I'm also going to enter my card in the Stamp It! Cards Week: Thank You Challenge at the Moxie Fab World. Supplies Used
Cardstock: (Pool Party, Crumb Cake) Stampin' Up

Gorgeous Jen, I love the background and that beautiful blue flower.
This is so bright and cute!
What a clever idea for the flower petals. I love how Kim gives us ideas to use her stamps in different ways.
They make really pretty petals too and that woodgrain is just so cool...really makes a great backdrop :0)
