Fluffy Flower

So I was going to wait until Thursday to share this card with you, but I forgot I already had another card ready for Thursday...lol. So...I made this card for 2 challenges...both of which are from my LSS's blog Buffalo Stamps and Stuff. On Fridays they have been posting sketch challenges, and on each Monday they post a technique type challenge. Well I was able to combine both challenges for this week into one card. The technique this week was to make a crimped boarder. So basically, punch with a boarder punch and then run it through a crimper. I have a crimper, but haven't used it in a very long time. I had to dig for it actually...lol. Well here is the card I came up with.I started with this flower image from QKR Stampede. It is actually just part of a stamp...I just trimmed the other flowers off. The image is called smiling flowers. It is actually one of the first stamps I picked when I was chosen to be on the QKR Stampede DT. I thought it would be fun to change it up a bit, and just use one of the 3 flowers on the stamp. I colored it with marker, and instead of coloring the center, I covered it with flower soft. The PP's are all from TAC's Miss Moxie collection. You can see the crimped boarder on here too! The sentiment is also from QKR Stampede. Well that is it for now! Thanks for stopping by....OH and don't forget, if you are not a fan of QKR Stampede on Facebook yet...now is the time to do it! Each week in August, Maribeth will be giving one lucky fan a free stamp of their choice!

Jessica, Great idea to combine both challenges over at BSS! I don't use my flower soft nearly enough, and love what you did with it.
Your crimped border looks great too. Thanks for joining us and sharing your card with us, always a pleasure to see what you come up with.
