I created this card for two challenges that are new to me. Friday Sketchers has a sketch that I followed and Daring Cardmakers asks that we add sparkle and bling to our cards. My card features Layers of Color Flower Child art stamp set as the focal point. I’ve also used Layers of Color Fleur Heart art stamp set on the petals and center of the flower. The background is created with handmade papers.

Coins are the theme at Layers of Color Challenge this week. Here’s my artwork. I hope this Gothic Arch inspires you!
| Remember discovering a coin on the ground when you were a child, and how exciting that was? I would pick it up and sing, “Find a penny, pick it up!…all day have good luck!”. My children would call the shiny ones, “girls”. I still look for found coins, but instead of picking them up, I point them out to any nearby children, just to see their smiles shine! |

Cammie has a Heart to Heart Blog Candy Giveaway where she is encouraging us to make a “Thank You!” card for those who care for Alzheimer’s patients. Her cause is heartfelt and her story is touching. Layers of Color is supporting Cammie, and honoring World Alzheimer’s Day, by donating two art stamp sets (winner’s choice)! If you participate, I’d appreciate it if you’d list ‘Layers of Color’ as a manufacturer. Thank you, and good luck! |

Here’s my contributing card:
It’s made with Layers of Color Beaded Frames and Garden Borders art stamp sets, Paper Whimsy image, a copy of a floral textile and a canvas background painted with acrylics; all placed on orange cardstock with a black envelope.

The challenge at Dans Ma Maison Il ya…une Fleur. A perfect opportunity to use my “Fleur” stamp on a birthday card. There are over a dozen birthdays I’ll celebrate between now and the end of the year, so this is the first of many.
