Simon Says Stamp: Flower Power!

I recently received some happy mail from my sweet blogging friend Maureen:)  Enclosed in one of her beautiful creations was some really cool die cuts!  I knew right away how I wanted to use one of them and today I had some time to play:


Don't you just love how that bow looks like it was made from ribbon??!!!  Maureen die cut it from some paper that looks and feels like velvet! Thanks again, Maureen:)  The chevron embossing folder, label die and flower image are all from Stampin' Up.  Sentiment is from Hero Arts.
Other Supplies Used:  Die-Namics die, Papertrey ink white cs, Ranger squeezed lemonade, peacock feathers and shaded lilac distress inks, Pebbles Seen & Noted pp, Queen & Co black pearls

I'm going to pop this into the current Simon Says Stamp challenge: Flower Power!   Thanks for all the positive feedback!

I've been admiring bow dies lately & a friend sent me one I need to use. This card has such great eye appeal, Robin--just want to keep staring at it!

Beyond gorgeous, Robin! Beautiful color combo and design, and that ribbon definitely looks like satin! Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and for your sweet comments :-) I took your suggestion about how to organize the dates for challenges so I have my calendar ready - now I just have to work harder at prioritizing and managing my time!!

So tickled to see what you did with this, Robin! This is so bright and cheery, just like you! And, your design reminds (with those cool flowers) reminds me of my favorite decade - the 1960's. Yay! You rock, girlfriend.
