Colour Throwdown #81 and a Question

Here I go! A post during the week! I am trying to keep up with challenges but this week at work has been busy and I must admit, I am pooped! Here is my submission for the current Colour Throwdown to use Pink, Chocolate and Olive. I inked up my Baroque Motifs set, I haven't used that set since Christmas!! It is inked in Olive and the little flowers are in Rose Red. The Paper Flower is created with the new Sweet Pea Designer Paper. It is so pretty! I used some Rose Red ribbon for the bottom of the card to tie it all together. Of course I used the corner trim punch, I love it! Now for my question, what is your favourite SU! stamp set and why do you like it?

Thanks!

Of the Earth Trio

It is Friday! Hooray! I have been admiring some new sketch blogs and decided to play. I went to work creating three thank you cards with the same colours but different sketches. This was a personal challenge for me! I also wanted to use only two stamp sets: Of the Earth (a Hostess Level 1 Set) and Thank You Kindly (a SAB FREE set with a $65 purchase).

This card was made for the "Everything but the Kitchen Sink" Blog. The sketch was fun and I used a 41/4"x 41/4" card base. I used some of that awesome Organza Ribbon again...I love it! Finally used my Modern Label Punch. I just love this sweet bird image from the "Of the Earth" set.My second card is a sketch from the "Unscripted Sketches" Blog. A new challenge for me and I liked the simple sketch. I dry embossed the white background with my Perfect Details folder and the Big Shot. I used the Corner Rounder Punch to add some interest to the card. Wished I had tied Organza Ribbon around the middle panel!
This third card is a sketch from the OCC Sketch Blog. I decided to make a paper flower to go with this card. I love making those paper flowers.That is it for now...I may try some of those wonderful colour challenges out there tonight!

Happy Stamping!
