Stampin' Celebration #38 and Paper Players




For our stamping club tomorrow we will be making a card similar to this, but in very soft feminine colors. When I was putting the card together I started thinking about how it would look in bold colors and came up with this version. They also happen to be in inspiration colors for this week's Stampin' Celebration Challenge.   I am in a flowery mood these days so I created some more quilled rosettes and stamped some musical notes for a very romantic Valentine card. MMM - flowers, music, all we need is some wine and perhaps a bit of chocolate. Romance is the theme at the  Paper Players challenge this week so I thought this would be appropriate for that challenge as well.   I was in a hurry to complete this card before the Superbowl, so unfortunately, there is red glitter everywhere in my craft closet. Now I'm off to clean up the glittery mess:)
