Stamping 411- I've Got a Crush....

I've got a new CRUSH!  I wanted to make a card for the current sketch at the Stamping 411.  I had some Garden Green DSP in my stash from a Hostess Set long ago.  What first started this card I was  thinking, I never use Concord Crush, I need to try that!  SO I did!  Wow!  Do I EVER like that colour!  SO yes, I have a new crush!!  I also used the "Friends Never Fade" set for my pal Trudy!!  I know that she "hearts" it!!


The card was very easy to put together and I am happy with the Garden Green and Concord Crush colours together!  I used my markers to ink up the "Friends Never Fade" stamp in two colours.  That is why I love the markers!!!


The scallop square in the middle is from the Scallop Square Die and the sentiment is from a Sale-A-Bration set from last year!  The button is from my Christmas Stash!!

Thanks for stopping by!
Smiles,
Lesley

PS  I have created my very own blog banner using MDS!!!  Eek!!  So much fun!  Please let me know what you think!! (thank you!!)

  10. I didn't think I was going to like Concord Crush at all when I first heard about it, but after I got a look at it, I was in love! It looks great with Garden Green too. This is a gorgeous card, I love how you've colored the flower. And the blog banner looks great!
