This week I chose to use Mojo Monday's Sketch #248 along with Color Dare #7. It wasn't too challenging this week to use 2 of the 3 secondary colors for the color dare. I love green and purple together!
For this card, I used D1510 - 4 My Friend, stamp set. Z1383 sweet leaf ribbon, and the Cricut CTMH Art Philosophy cartridge for the green frame, the flower, and leaves. I chose Topiary, Sweet Leaf, and Gypsy for my secondary colors. Originally I tried using Lilac Mist for my card base, but I decided that white looked better in the background. I also used the Cuttlebug for creating a pattern on the background. It's hard to tell in the picture, but the Topiary frame is actually raised up using foam tape, which made it a little hard for me to focus on the sentiment. Overall, I'm pretty pleased with the final card. It ended up being 5"x7" and so three-dimensional, you would have to deliver these Congrats in person!
Here's the original sketch:
