Hello friends! Today at Can You Handle The Pressure,
the challenge that is all about using your embossing folders
has a new OPTIONAL theme and it is BLUE ON BLUE,
meaning we want to see ALL blue cards or you can create
our anything goes theme as long as an embossing folder has been used.
I started out thinking I was going to make a baby card
and had an idea all set for it, but somehow this card came about instead.
I am in the process of trying to use up my SU card stocks as I have had them
for quite sometime and the way I store them they are fading along the edges.
For this card I used Bordering blue and Not Quite Navy.
The stamp is an OLD Flourishes A Year In Flowers 1. I have used all but
one of the flowers for this set now and it makes me happy!
The pansies were stamped in Dew Drop Teal Zeal ink as well as the
The Greetery birthday stamp. The scalloped background is a Cottage Cutz die.
The embossing folder I used is a 3d Honey Bee Spring Medley folder.
We would love to see you at Can You Handle The Pressure challenge blog!

Love all your pretty blue elements and clever sentiment panel! Beautiful EF ... might need to look into that one! lol
Very pretty card Diane, that folder goes so well with the image. And yes, I've been motivated to use some older cardstock when I see the edges are fading too. It can be hard to use up colors you can't get anymore though!
Those flowers look so pretty simply stamped in blue. Marcy's artwork, whether for Flourishes or Power Poppy, is so good it stands beautifully on its own. Love this study in blue with the embossing and eyelet edges. Now you'll have to use that last flower in the set. I'm curious as to which one it is!
