The Queen's Scene: When You're Not Here

Hi there! I'm late with my Color Throwdown Challenge post for today but better late than never. Since I was late, I was able to use this week's My Favorite Things Wednesday Sketch Challenge to go along with the pretty color combination we have over at the Color Throwdown.

For my card I used the My Favorite Things stamp sets Pretty Posies with the Pretty Posies Die-namics and I Knead You with the I Knead You Die-namics. Looking at the CTD inspiration photo I wanted to use a floral set but also wanted something cute thrown in. I used a strip of polka dotted coral colored paper from the MFT Dots & Stripes Sorbet paper pack then added an embossed piece of kraft cardstock. Next I stamped, colored (with Copic markers) and die cut my floral images and cat along with the Single Stitched Oval Die-namics Frame. For the inside of the frame, I blended on some melon berry ink and used the same ink for two of my flowers along with some tropical teal and rich razzelberry. After that I stamped my sentiment on a banner and adhered all my pieces down onto my card, popping up the largest coral flower with foam tape and gluing on some teal sequins.
