Now to the card! This is my submission for today's Color Challenge at SCS: Purely Pomegranate, Wild Wasabi, and So Saffron. I started with a card base of Purely Pomegranate cardstock that measured 11 X 4-1/4, and when folded in half to open at the bottom measures 5-1/2 X 4-1/4. The border at the top of the card is from the "Urban West" Rub Ons Pack. Black KaiserScrapbook Rhinestones are scattered throughout the flourish. The sentiment is also a rub on, but it is from the "Anchored" Rub Ons Pack. Another Black KaiserScrapbook Rhinestone was added to the star in the "o" for added dimension.

The punched flower was made using the following punches and papers: 5-Petal Flower Punch (Basic Black cardstock, Wild Wasabi Designer Paper-from the Prints Pack, Purely Pomegranate caardstock, So Saffron cardstock), and the Snow Blossom Punch (Wild Wasabi cardstock only). The flower on the top is a rub on , also from the "Anchored" Rub Ons Pack, and was placed on Purely Pomegranate cardstock. The flower was then cut out using CutterBee Scissors, and another Black KaiserScrapbook Rhinestone was added to its center. Each layer was attached to the others using Dimensionals, and the completed bloom was attached to the card base using Dimensionals again.

That's it for today....simple, simple, simple card! I will see you all tomorrow with a card for my all-time favorite challenge - the Sketch Challenge! Thanks for stopping by, and don't forget to leave a comment for a shot at winning the blog candy! Until later......Hugs ~ Mercy
