Lovely Layers - Denami Blog Hop

Ahhhh, summertime - gotta love it! Can you believe that this year is going by so fast?? Before we know it, it will be Christmas! But for now, it's time for another DeNami Blog Hop


If you're hopping along in order, you just came from a beautiful creation on Ruza Rebel's blog and if you've gotten lost along the way, just head back over to the DeNami Design blog for the complete list of participants.

Here is the card I created:



After seeing patriotic colors everywhere, I was really drawn to red, so I picked a border bunch and then ended up staring at the empty canvas for a long time. Finally, I decided to do something floral, and went into my embellishment drawer and found the blue flower. Well, of COURSE I wasn't going to use this blue flower because I didn't think it went well with red, I just wanted to use the shape and size. I then created the elements around it and after a while, the blue grew on me and I decided to keep it on the card - funny how things happen sometimes, huh?

I hope you like it!

Stamps: Decorative Flourish, Scallop Tulip, Polka Dot Background, 'Enjoy' from Heartfelt Greetings (DeNami Design)

  2. I think it's neat that you planned not to use the blue, and then it grew on you. It's funny how our vision can change our mind. But it is a beautiful card!
