Hey Sugar–Take Two

Sugar sugar, honey honey…I cannot get that song out of my head now.  Aaaaaah!

Lindsey, Trudee, Julia and I decided to do a Take Two this time using Cosmo Cricket’s new Hey Sugar line and any flower stamps.  I thought I should look in my Stampin’ Up sets since it’s been eons since I’ve used one of them.  I first gravitated toward my beloved Petal Prints, but then I thought “No, you WILL use Pick a Petal.  You bought it, you HAVE to use it.”  So I did.  (At least now I can say I’ve used it twice.  I’m not a big fan of this set, but when I first saw it, I “had” to have it.)

I stamped the petals directly onto the patterned paper, cut them out and arranged them on the back side of another pattern from the collection.  I wanted a couple of the petals to extend “outside of the box” (just because I like to do that) and the flower center is raised on a dimensional.  There isn’t really much more to say about this card.  It’s a bit busy, but I think I like it.

Don’t forget to pop on over to see what Julia, Lindsey and Trudee have come up with!  I can’t wait to see for myself!  (And for a little enabling, Lindsey has about 200  items in her store at 20% off until Monday…just fyi.)

Also, my good buddy, Dee, is having a blog give-away.   Click here, scroll down just a bit and you’ll see it!!  

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great weekend!!
