Seize the Dynamic Floral....



I love the opportunity to look at all my favorite challenge blogs on Saturdays, but I don't often have much time to create and link up.  At best I manage one or two each week.  Today I was inspired! This card matches up three (yes! 3) different challenges: 
Seize the Sketch #14

Dynamic Duo - Triple Threat
and Card Concept: #4 Floral Theme

It also gave me the opportunity to play with some of my new things from Close To My Heart: Funky Blossoms stamp set, Chevron embossing folder, and Flamingo Dots.  I have matched the Dynamic colors with CTMH Sweet Leaf, Goldrush and Cotton Candy. I stamped the images, hand cut them and then layered with some foam tape between flower layers.The chevron piece was stamped in Cotton Candy, and placed on a Goldrush mat with the embossed piece.  I wrapped that little panel with Baker's Twine. The Sweet Leaf circle was cut using the Artiste cartridge.

This is my first attempt for Card Concept -  I think I would call this card "Clean & Layering"
