Sweet 'n Sassy Digi Challenge #67

Hello! It’s time for this week’s Sweet ‘n Sassy Digi Challenge! This week’s theme is 3-D Flowers. To play along, create a card using a digital image and three-dimensional flowers, and link it at the Sweet ‘n Sassy Digi Challenge site. You can choose to add dimension to a floral digital image, or you can create a flower by stacking punched shapes, or maybe even make a flower from ribbon. Use your imagination! Even though you can use a digi image from any company, we especially enjoy seeing what our challenge participants create using Sweet ‘n Sassy digital images. More details about the perks you can get for participating are available on the Sweet ‘n Sassy Digi Challenge site.

I decided to layer a digital image for my card for this challenge.  I printed the Poinsettia image twice.  I colored the leaves on one image and the petals on the other, cut them out, and reassembled them to give my flower some dimension.  I also added a few tiny half pearls to the center of the poinsettia.  The layout I used for my card is based on Stars and Stamps Sketch #133, although I’ve added a few layers to it and substituted a different shape for the circle element in the sketch.  I’ve also worked this week’s Stars and Stamps Midweek Throwdown challenge into this card by using kraft cardstock.  The sentiment is also a digital image, printed directly onto the kraft.  And now I have another Christmas card for Operation Write Home.

The rest of the design team and I hope you’ll join us this week! Be sure to “like” the Sweet ‘n Sassy Digi Challenge Facebook page, too!
