fabulous pizazz

I apologize for the poor lighting on this picture. I'm not sure what happened. But you get the general idea. I used the Petal Pizazz and Absolutely Fabulous stamp sets. the colors are certain celery, apricot appeal and eggplant envy. I don't know if you can see it but I dry embossed along the scallops using my crop-a-dile. The button also has a tiny piece of celery cardstock in it to make it appear to be sewn.

Funky Colored Petal Pizazz

So this isn't my favorite color combo, but do like the end result. The colors are Orchid opulence (probably one of the least used colors), tangerine tango and baja breeze. I was really trying to make something with colors that I don't use very often. If you are like me, you get a couple favorite colors and use them on everything. I was trying to step outside my comfort zone. I think it might be time to go back in :)

I like the lay out of the card, so I may try it with different colors.

Waiting on my Big shot!

I've ordered my big shot and I can't wait to play with it. Until then I'll play with some of the pieces that I cut with a friends big shot.

The flower is from Petal Pizazz, and the sentiment is from Garden Whimsy. To kick it up a notch I added the green brads to the center of the flower. It was a little boring before that.

A little Petal Pizzaz

Here is another new set that I received. It's called Pedal Pizazz. It has great bold image flowers that are very easy to use. The sentiment is from Upsy Daisy (I really like the sentiments in that set). I love white cards. I think sometimes we go overboard with layers and colors when white is enough. I added a little punch to this card by adhering the large flower with a dimensional.
