ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE #347 "ADD A BELL"

Good Morning!! I hope you are starting to begin your holiday festivities. I finally have my tree up and now I'm starting to wrap gifts. Very busy week for me coming up. I hope I can get it done a little early so I can relax before our Christmas dinner. On to the challenge at hand.

Sherri Baldy Designs is our sponsor for this week's challenge of "Add A Bell." There are two places you can find her work. First is Sherri Baldy Designs and then Scrapbook Stamp Society. I just love these images because they have the big eyes on the girls. I don't know what it is about these eyes but I just love them. You really need and look at both of her stores. She has a lot of great images. She let me choose the image "Image 815, Gingerbread Girl." I did have a lot of fun coloring her and making this card. I'm excited to show you but I need to let you know what she will be giving to one of our lucky winner's. 

The 3 Digital Stamps

That Our

Design Team Used

You will see the three different images on The Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog that our Design Team used. Remember this little cutie will be one of the images. Let's see here.

I hope you like this. I have noticed that Christmas Cards are starting to use different colors besides the traditional ones. I had this pink paper in my stash for awhile and decided to use it and make the gingerbread girl dressed in pink. So all the items I used was in my scrapbooking room from times that I just picked something up on one of my shopping trips. You can use any colors you want to make this.

I want to Thank You again for reading my post and hoping that you get inspiration from the card that I made. Have a Wonderful Week!!

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 345 "SQUARE OR RECTANGLE CARDS"

Hello To All!! Hope you had a great first couple of days of December. It was great here. My husband surprised me with a gift this week of going out of town for a night to get away from reality. While we were there he had another surprise gift. A beautiful bracelet that has I with a Heart and U and between each time it's repeated there is an infinity sign in between. It's also the start of Christmas shopping and I did get some this week. My husband even spent Friday with me shopping for gifts. Thank You Tony and Happy Anniversary!!



Here is our sponsor this week with a very catchy name. My Stitch Back In Twine. This is a great etsy store to go and look through the images. She also has Pre-Colored images and some images for steampunk which is popular now. The image that I used from this store is, "Underland Caterpillar." This is an adorable Caterpillar that sits on a mushroom. The face is what caught my eye. Here is what they are giving to one lucky winner this week.

Here is "Underland Caterpillar"

Is she not a cute caterpillar? So, since she was sitting on a mushroom, I had found this paper in my stash with the other mushrooms and thought it would be a perfect fit. There were little butterflies around the mushrooms so I put some butterflies around the caterpillar. We had to make square or rectangle cards so mine is square. 5 x 5 inches. Here is the few items that I made this cute card with.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 344 "STRIPES OR DOTS"

Hello!! Welcome to my blog today. Hope is all well with you. I hope you have a Wonderful Thanksgiving with your family and friends. I actually had all three of my children home for dinner. It's very seldom that they are here all at once. We all actually sat and watched a movie together before my one son had to leave to get his daughter. This was a memorable holiday.

As you can see from up above Limited Runs Digital Stamps is our sponsor for this week's challenge. She has a Wonderful blog and for the month of December she will be having specials on her stamps. Just check in every couple of days. She let me use this cute image called, "Christmas Tree Cupcake." I love cupcakes and Christmas also, so this was a great image to work with. My picture didn't turn out the best but the tree has shading on it. It's just really hard to tell. Let me tell you about the prize Limited Runs Digital Stamps is giving to one lucky winner.

I try to name all my cards so this one is "Sweet Christmas."

I hope you enjoyed my yummy cupcake. I thought the candies looked great with the image. We do get all these sweets at Christmas time. Here is how I put this card together. I found this piece of paper that had both stripes and dots so I thought it would be perfect. Added red and green cardstock in different ways to focus on the image I was using. Added the image I colored and glittered. Last but not least, added the bright candy suckers and candies. It was very easy once I had the sketch done. Here are the items I used.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 343 "LACE AND GEMS"

Hello Everyone!! Well, we are officially in the cold  winter weather here. I'm loving the cold. I always have and probably always will. The sleet and flurries was great to see. Can't wait to see one big snow storm. 

You will like our sponsor this week. It is Star Stampz which is also called Star In My Pocket. The category that I love is the one called "Storybook And Fantasy." This is where I used an image of hers called, "Sleeping Beauty." She is absolutely beautiful just sleeping in her bed. So, when I went looking for things to make my card, I had way more than I was going to use. I just wanted to do it justice. Let me tell you the prize that Star Stampz will be giving before I show you my card.

Here is my card that I did name "Sleeping Beauty."

I have to say that I love this card. My grand daughter loves the Disney Princesses and this will be a beautiful card for her birthday. I'm hoping my son will keep it for her to look at when she gets older. These cards do take a lot of time to make. You can't see it but the purple paper has crowns and the saying, "Beautiful Princess." You can see it on the back. Made the frame with my Big Shot and a stencil to make the oval around the picture. Surrounded the oval with the lace and gems. Lastly I added the flowers that looked the best together. Here is where the items I used to make this card came from.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 342 "ANYTHING FOR THANKSGIVING"

Good Morning!! Hope you had a great week. My Saturday was wonderful. My son had a Birthday Party for my Grandson. My son moved out in the country and the fall leaves on the trees were beautiful. Was a very nice ride. On the ride home we seen the most amazing sunset that we watched all the way home. Nice party and a very peaceful day.

Our wonderful sponsor for this week is our own Robyn from Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps and More. We were able to go to the Thanksgiving section in her store and pick out one image to use for this week's challenge. Since we could make anything for Thanksgiving I chose "The Scarecrow And His Friend." I knew I had pictures of my kids when they were little and walked in a parade around the school halls. They were dressed as little Indians. I knew I wanted to make another Scrapbook Layout. So, I want to tell you what Robyn is giving to this week's winner and then show you my layout.

Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps And More

Now here is my layout that I decided to call "Thanksgiving Parade."

I showed the kids the pictures and they didn't remember the parade or even making their Indian costumes. They are so adorable. So, I used the picture of my sons and then added the scarecrow that I had colored. Used two different papers to put behind the pictures. Added the glittered flowers, glittered pumpkins, Indians, and Pilgrims as embellishments for the rest of the page. I had ordered a 3D Thanksgiving sign for the page but I never received it in the mail in time to post my project for the challenge. I probably will added it when I get it. These are the items that I used to make this layout.

Paper -- The Paper Studio

I hope you enjoyed the layout. I did have a lot of fun making it. I always do when it's made with an image and pictures of my family. I would love to see you projects that are about Thanksgiving. So if you go to The Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog add your project and you will also see the other projects that our Design Team made for their Thanksgiving project. So have fun making what you decide to do and I will be back here next week with another new challenge. Have a Wonderful Week!!

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 341 "MORE THAN ONE BUTTON"

Hello to Everyone!! Hope your having a good start to your day. I can't believe today is the start of Day Light savings time. I don't know if you have to set your clocks back but here in Ohio we have to. I'm not looking forward to it being dark at 5 and 6 O'clock. It always takes me a week at least to get my body to adjust to the change and my morning routine. Well, let's see who our sponsor is this week and tell you about them.

Oddball Art Co. is our wonderful sponsor for this week's challenge. They have a really neat etsy store that has images from the very cute to the very creepy. They are all adorable and I loved working with the one I did. Oddball Art Co. let me use their digital image called "Tasha." She is a very adorable fairy reaching out to a Dragonfly. I'm excited to show you my card, so let me tell you the prize for this week's challenge of "Add More Than One Button."

Oddball Art Co.

Here is my card with "Tasha."

Is that image not adorable. I made a fancy cut on the side of the paper I printed the fairy on. I decided to use all white flowers to match the white flowers on the background paper that I used. I put white and gold buttons on the flowers to add some color but not to much. I glittered her wings and put some glitter on the flowers which is hard to see in the picture. Then added three cute little fairies which also came with glitter on their wings. I think it all fit together and is very cute. Here are the items that I used to make my card.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 332 "FOOD OR DRINK"

Hello To You All!! Hope the weather is nice where you are. We had a great couple of days that were really nice and no rain. I hope it will be like this next week. We are having a bonfire for our daughter and her friends for her birthday. She turns 17 Wednesday and is making me feel real old. We are actually talking about colleges already. She will be in a program her senior year where they will pay for so many credits at a college. It's starting to be a reality now.

The Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog is our sponsor for this week. We are very glad that she let's us use her images to do our projects with. Robyn has many images in her store that I just love. When she gets new ones in I can't wait to use them. Here is one of my favorites "Wedding Cake." Long story but I eloped with my husband when we were very young so this cake is colored the way our flowers were. Just had to use these pictures I just found.

As you can see, I made a Scrapbook Layout. First, I need to tell you about what Robyn is giving for a prize this week.

From

The Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps & More Store

Here is the layout that I made this week. I called it "Wedding Day." We eloped back in 1991. Again, Long story. I used a Specialty Paper for the background and the background behind the pictures. This paper is really tricky to work with. They are not a regular cardstock and the paper stretches. I wish I would have known this before I used this paper. Trying to get things to stick to it was definitely hard. I used the wedding cake and cut off the flowers at the bottom of the image. I used pop up dots to make it a little dimensional. Used a border with flowers and rhinestones. Then added all the embellishments to the page. I think it turned out really pretty. It did bring back great memories from then. Here's where everything came from.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 331 "ANYTHING GOES"

It's me again to tell you about another challenge that The Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog is having this week. Anything goes is everyone's favorite. You can add any project to win this week. Either it be a card, scrapbook layout, bookmark or any other idea you come up with for your entry. Just have fun with what ever you do. 

We have another great sponsor for this week's challenge. It is A Creative Need Digital Stamps. This is an etsy store that has a variety of different stamps for you to choose from. With the card that I made this week, she was generous to let me use the stamp "Cottage Window." I seen the window and thought about the cottages that sit back in the woods where no one can see them. I wanted to make a scrapbook layout that I usually do when we do "Anything Goes" but could not think of how to do it so here is the card I decided on. 

That's my card made with "Cottage Window." I want to let you know (before I tell you how I made the card) what the prize from A Creative Need Digital Stamps will be giving.

You can get this window if you participate. So, here is how I made this cute card. I told you that I thought cottages were way back in the woods, so I found this paper of limbs of pine trees. I then made different shapes with the paper and colored the cottage window. Pretty easy. It did take more time then you would think though. Not much but here is what I used.

I told you it was a short list. I just couldn't find any embellishments that went with it. I do wish there was more on it. It's not like me to make something simple. Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog is where you can add your project and see all the fabulous things that the other design team members have made. This is a great place to enter a challenge. Hope to see yours here. Enjoy the week ahead and the beginning of September. 

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE #322 "BUTTERFLIES"

Hello from Hot and Humid Ohio. The weather is going up and down that you don't know if you will be miserable or happy for the day. Its not helping with the packing and unpacking of my mother-in-laws house. We are doing the stuff that will come to my home and then to other relatives and if there is anything left it will be sold or put in storage. I will be glad when this is all done.

Who's ready for our challenge?

Limited Runs Digital Stamps is our sponsor for the "Butterflies" Challenge #322. They were very gracious and let me use their image "Butterfly 3." I just love butterflies. So, I ended up calling this card "Butterfly Garden." Since I had put all different flowers and butterflies laying on top of them I thought this was a perfect name. 

Before I explain what I did with my card, I would like to tell you what Limited Runs Digital Stamps will be giving to the winner.

That will be a great prize. They have the cutest images. You should go over and look. You will want to join our challenge then. So, with the card that I made, I wanted to try to color the butterfly with the same colors that were on the butterfly paper. I think that I came really close. I know that butterflies usually fly around flowers, so I wanted to make a garden of them so the butterflies had a place to go. I used a blue circle to break up the pink decorative circle from the background paper. Here is where everything I used came from.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 321 "THINGS WITH WHEELS"

Good Morning!! Hope all is well with you as you are reading this. This past week we had our first heat wave. It was 95 degrees and I was scrubbing floors in this. I don't have air conditioning but a big ceiling fan in my kitchen. It felt hot but I did not know it reached that high until I watched the news that night. It's just now reaching summer and it's coming in hot. Now, let's get to the "Things With Wheels" challenge

Our sponsor this week is A Random Fan. The image that is used was called, "Travel Bug." I named the card "Let's Go Traveling" just because it was the sentiment that I used on my Easel card. A different style of card that I made this week. Here is my "Travel Bug."

I would like to tell you what the winner of this week's challenge will be receiving from A Random Fan.

3 Digital Images

A Random Fan Store

When I seen this image I had an idea right away that I wanted to do. Unfortunately, the pictures I was going to use for a scrapbook layout didn't have one of my grand children by their little battery operated cars. I had one with their car alone but the rest the two of them were always together in a picture. So, back to the drawing board. I was looking through some books and thought an Easel card would be great because I had little cars to go with this bug. The paper fit perfectly with the car and then the sentiment was just the icing on the cake. I think this turned out really cute but I couldn't get the card to darken up like you would be seeing it in person. Here is what I used to make the Easel Card.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 320 "CHILDREN AT PLAY"

Good Day to everyone no matter what time it is when you are reading this post. Hope you had a great weekend. I have been putting the finishing touches on the room that my husband and I remodeled to put my scrapbooking stuff and other crafts that I work on. It's not as big as I really need but my mother-in-law is moving in with us and she will be taking my big room I was going to use. You have to do things differently when it comes to family. I do have more things to do on the room but I need to get everything out of the other room because she is moving in at the end of the month. Now I'm going to move along to our new challenge of the week.

Our sponsor for this week's challenge is A Day For Daisies. I would like to show you the card with the image "Wall Art" that I used from A Day For Daisies Store. I call it "The Writing Is On The Wall."

A Day For Daisies is giving the winner of this weeks challenge "Children At Play" projects this prize.

I really found this image adorable. I remember my children when they were little writing on the walls of their room. Couldn't just wash it off. Some of it had to be painted over. I was grateful when they grew out of this stage. Since this was obviously a toddler I wanted it to be a Birthday Card from the toddler to his mommy. I colored the wall to make it look like a wall that a toddler drew on. I made the mistakes on purpose. Since he was using crayons I found this great paper and had embellishments to go perfect with it. I tried to find a teddy bear that a toddler would carry but I couldn't so I just put a cat that sits beside him. I found this great font that kind of looked like a child's writing. I really think it turned out great. I hope you do also. Here are the items I used.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 319 "BABY CARDS"

Hello Everyone!! It's been since January since I last posted anything. I do apologize for the quick disappearance. I just wanted to say that it was a life changing experience and would not wish it on anyone. Stay close to your family and friends. You never know what will happen to them one day when it comes out of no where. So with that said, here is this week's challenge with "Baby Cards."

I want to show you my card that I made with the image from Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps And More. His name is Peapod Patrick and here he is. 

The winner of this challenge will receive 

3 Digital Images

From

Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps and More

Since pea-pods are grown from vines I wanted to add some vines into the card. So, I used a punch that I had found called "Blooming Vines" by Martha Stewart. I made two frames from this punch. The one on the outside and there is one behind Patrick. After putting this together I wish I would have made the little one with a different color or stamped around the edges. (HINT: Those are two things that you may want to try.) There are flowers on the edges so I put pearls on the little frame to make the flowers stand out a little more. The background paper has little mice on it which they are very cute to. Then I colored the image to match all the papers with the card. I put blue on him just to make him stand out more because this was the image I was using. Let me give you the list of items that I used.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 298 "SQUARE CARDS"

Good Morning, Afternoon or Evening. That is where ever you are at the time you are reading this. Hope things were good with you this past week. This week I was lucky to catch the flu from my son who brought it home from work. This just messes with my creativity. I can't think of sketches or anything that well. I do hope you think the project that I did come up with is beautiful. 

The East Wind is our sponsor for this week's challenge. This is an etsy store where you can buy their digital stamps. As of now, they have 299 different images. That is a lot to look at and to choose from. So the image that The East Wind was gracious enough to let me use is called, "Aurora - Lost Lagoon." She is very beautiful and is putting her hand in water to pet a king fish. I say he is a king fish because the fish has a crown on his head. The way this image is designed is amazing. I really fell in love with it. I did use a background paper that looks like water and put a light blue piece of paper on part of the top to break it up. I come up with "Hello My Friend" for the card since the girl is petting the fish underwater. It looked a little plain so I added some flowers at the top. Let me tell you what The East End is giving as a prize before I show you the square card I made with this image.

The East Wind Store

Thank You for the prize you are giving to our lucky winner this week. Now here is the card that I made with Aurora - Lost Lagoon

I really hope you you like the image. The picture was hard to take a picture for some reason. The card is darker then what it looks like here. The fish has three different colors on it. What looks like white spaces is actually a light blue. It's time for me to have my camera looked at. Just to make sure everything is working properly. I do think the flowers made the card look so much better. So, let me tell you where those flowers came from and the other items.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 294 "ADD A CHRISTMAS DIE CUT"

Good Morning to everyone. Hope you are enjoying December. It doesn't feel like it though around here. The temperatures has been in the 50's and 60's. Today it is suppose to reach in the 70's. We know were not having a white Christmas around here. Just a little bit of cold weather would help out though. I still don't have all my shopping done but I am getting close. I did finish my Christmas tree which if you follow me on facebook you would have seen it. I did it by myself and it was a little depressing. No one to talk to or even sing a little tune. My husband did let me splurge a little and I bought a new Angel for my tree topper. She's white and will go with every thing. Next year I am going to figure out how to put white lights under her dress and behind my Nativity Scene. 

This week's challenge gives you another chance to make some final Christmas Cards. You can add that Christmas die that you have been waiting to use. Anne's Digital Art is our great artist's of the week. She is a lovely artist and she actually allowed me to work with her image "Christmas Balls." These are three Christmas ornaments sitting together in a pile. I colored all three different colors and put some glitter on a couple. I will show them on my card but first I need to tell you the prize Anne is giving this week.

Anne's Digital Art

Here is the card with her "Christmas Balls" which I maned my card, "Ornament's Of Our Homes."

I like that I only had three colors all over this card. (Except for the little bit of Gold) I was surprised that I found this sentiment in a book that I was looking through for another card. I was happy when  I found them at the same time. Saved me time looking or thinking for a sentiment for one of the cards. Here is my list of items I used.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 286 "MORE THAN 2 PUMPKINS ON THE CARD OR PROJECT"

Good Morning Everyone!! Hope you had a nice weekend. Mine was great for once. My little bother married the love of his life. The ceremony was very beautiful and so was the bride. Yes, my brother was very handsome. The two of them are very blessed to have each other. They are an amazing couple. They had a ceremony with their closest family and friends. Then on Saturday they had a second reception for everyone they knew and more of the family that didn't come Friday night. They were married at a place called the Kelton House Museum. In the basement was a display of the old under ground railroad that people had been through. They had a lot of information on people that had been through there. This place was so beautiful. Perfect place for this perfect couple.

Sorry so long but I am still excited. DeeDee's Digis is our sponsor for this week's challenge. They offer many things in their store. There are digital images, digital papers, digi of the month and that's just a little of what is there. I would really love for you take a little bit of your time to visit their store. This store does offer a lot for your digital needs. The digital image I used was from a set called "Autumn Blessings." Since we had to use more that 2 pumpkins, I used one of the images three times and used their sentiment of "Happy Thanksgiving." They are offering a great prize.

I hope you like it. The row of three pumpkins is one of the images I used and the Happy Thanksgiving is the second. I wanted the candles to look like they were a cream color so they would be noticeable. I have pumpkin paper, two more 3D pumpkins and the strip of pumpkins above the image. I wanted to put as many pumpkins as I could for this card. So here is the items used and who made them.

How crazy is that. Just remember that Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog if where you need to be to see the challenge and the Design Teams Work.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE #275 "USE KRAFT CARDSTOCK ON YOUR CARD"

Hello!!! I'm scheduling this early in case I can't get to it later in the week. So I will make this a little shorter because I'm packing. Here we go with the challenge

Robyn's Fetish  is sponsoring this week's challenge. We are to use Kraft cardstock on our cards. The base of my card is my kraft cardstock. I know that was the easy way to go but I wanted to get my card done for this challenge before I moved. Of course, Robyn was gracious enough to let us use one of the digital stamps from her store. I picked the Miss Piggy digital stamp. She looks like she is playing in the mud. She is absolutely adorable. Here is the prize that Robyn will be to that one lucky winner.

Here is my card with Miss Piggy.

I do hope you like the card. I was trying to make it look like the pig was in mud and straw. This sentiment is great. I was just searching around on the internet and came across this saying but it was for mother's day card. I just changed the end of it. Here is the list of items I used.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE #274 "CHRISTMAS IN JULY"

I hope everyone is having a nice start to their day. I'm still drinking the coffee to wake me up. It's been a very long and stressful week here. We are getting to the end of the loan process and hopefully close on our new home this Friday. The loan officer says that we will close and then he says it will be real close to it. I have everyone lined up to help me move and my husband took his vacation to try and get everything moved. He better make it work so we close Friday. I can clean our old house the week after. I am getting excited but preparing myself in case things don't work out the way it should. I will let you know how the process is going. 

We have a great sponsor that has been here before. It's Dragonsmoore, Spyder's Other Corner. Every Wednesday you would want to go and see the Freebie for the day. Who doesn't like free. She also has an amazing image called the Snowy Oak Tree. There is a lot of detail in this tree and I love the images with lots of detail. Since we were doing Christmas in July I used the cutest image. He is called, "Hedgie's Christmas Tree." He is trimming the tree with his son or could be daughter if you like. Bunch of presents under the tree they are working on. So, since we are doing Christmas in July I decided to make a scrapbook layout with more pictures from our Christmas in 2014. This one has pictures of my husband and him mom. It's very rare to get a picture of my husband so when I took these two I was lucky. I also never have made a scrapbook page with his mom on one. I also have two pictures of our Christmas Tree on the page. So let's see what Dragonsmoore, Spyder's Other Corner is giving to a lucky winner this week.

I'm really excited to show you this layout. I really think it turned out nice. So here it is.

I loved coloring the hedge hog. There are three different colors in his fur. I did use the lines and colored each one a different color. I think it turned out great. This was really a fun image to work with. I was going to make the image larger but then I thought that's all you would see more then the whole layout. This is the first layout that I used six pictures in. Trying to do something new with every layout. Here are the items I used to make this.

I really hope you like my layout and please leave me a comment. You can see all the projects our wonderful design team made at Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog. Invite your friends. I think everyone can make something for Christmas. See you all soon!!!

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE #268 "WEDDING CARDS"

Hello on this great Sunday morning. I hope you all had a great week and weekend. Mine was a very busy one. Doing things for my daughter. Had to be at the inspection on the house we are trying to buy and the best was my oldest sister Shelley was married yesterday. She looked so happy. The wedding was at a park near me called Rising Park and there was a gazebo on the water's edge so when they were doing their vows you could see the pond behind them. Very beautiful and it didn't rain. The wedding was very simple but nice and all of us sisters made food and had a reception at my sister's house. Then after we all were there it started to pour down rain. Boy was she lucky that it didn't do this during the wedding. 

This challenge came at the right week. I made my card for my sister and a photo album she asked me to make for her that she would pay for. Of course, I wasn't going to let her pay for it. That was the wedding gift from me to her. I'm excited to show my card because it's a little close to the album. So the image that I chose was called "May I Have This Dance" and I chose it from our sponsor A Day For Daisies. I loved this image as it's just part of a reception. A Day For Daisies is a great store for you to look at and the image on the first page is a great image for Father's Day. You could get it when you enter our challenge this week. A Day for Daisies is giving a great prize this week so let me tell you what it is.

Here is the card that I made that I just left named, "May I Have This Dance." 

Since the boy and girl are going to dance I found this piece of paper that looks like a music sheet. It's suppose to look like that the doves are caring the sign. My sister's wedding was black and white with red roses. I tried to make my card with the same color scheme. There are actually black roses in with the rest of the roses. They are hard to see. Here are the items that I used to make this adorable card.

Cardstock -- The Paper Studio

Paper -- From My Paper Stash

Well I hope you liked the card. Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog will have more great cards from our design team. There are many beautiful cards that are made and displayed there. You will also see how to enter the challenge and don't forget to read the tutorials. They are great and I even learn from them. So have a great week and I will be back.

I would like to show you the pictures of the album and how the flowers are almost alike.
