Sweet and simple for FabFri131

Today I'm sharing a card I made for Fab Friday 131. I've been trying to participate in challenges to help get my creative juices flowing when I sit down in my craft room. I'm blessed to have a lot of options to choose from...but sometimes that makes it harder! I want to use all of it, all of the time but challenges help to focus me on something particular and makes it easier to create.
 When I saw the sketch this week I immediately thought of my favorite punch...the Triple Banner punch. I can't believe I waited so long to get this one, I use it all of the time!
Today's card:

I tried to keep this one super simple and quick, and I did that by using our Whisper White notecards. Pre-scored with an envelope included, these are great when you need a last minute card or just to make a lot of cards quickly.
The Petal Passion DSP is gorgeous in all its original black and white glory, but its a perfect paper to add color to. I love our new Stampin' Blends, and I have been using them often. For this card, I colored random white dots with the Dark Pink Pirouette (thanks, Brian King!)
The flowers I used are from the Better Together set, a very versatile set with greetings for several occasions, and several images. I made these flowers by using the single flower stamp and the masking technique to make them a cluster. So easy and fun! I colored them with a combination of the Pink Pirouette and Rich Razzleberry blends, and used Old Olive for the leaves.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you'll check out all the wonderful projects using this sketch as inspiration at the Fab Friday challenge blog.

Have a magical day!
