The Paper Players #774

I was honored with a shout out at the last The Paper Players challenge so I'm back with another card for this week's sketch from Jan.

This card is a mish mash of Bits and Pieces.  I don't know why the plaid looks so distorted in the photo. It was made with an oldie background stamp from Concord and 9th and has been in my Bits box for some time.  I thought it went well with the Beautiful Bloom from Pinkfresh Studio that had been stenciled and was just waiting for a chance to shine.  The grosgrain ribbon is an old die/plate from MFT, the background is a piece of Blossom Field by SSS that didn't emboss right and the sentiment is from my stash cut down to fit. 

The doors are closing on the challenge so I'm off to enter it.  Thanks for dropping by.

    Wait a minute there, my friend... grosgrain ribbon die?? Where has that gem been hiding?? and why don't I have it?? It is the perfect wrap for Jan's sketch... and remember, we always did have a bit of a problem with that plaid, but it looks terrific here and so sweet with those cute blooms, Bobby!!

    Your bits box contains some treasures if it helps you whip up a card like this! Very pretty indeed. I really like the soft embossed texture behind the gorgeous blooms. Thanks for joining in with my sketch challenge this week at The Paper Players.

    It's always nice to use up bits and pieces Bobby, especially when they come together as prettily as this! The plaid picks up the colours of your blossoms beautifully. Thanks for sharing with us over at The Paper Players this week!
