I love it when a card comes together, and this one hit all the right spots. I started with awesome images from Tiffany Doodles and sentiments from Skipping Stones Designs, gorgeous colors that perfectly matched an unused paper stack, the embellishments tried to trip me up, but I let them know who was in control (I'll explain that in the image detail below). I hope you like my card and are able to play along with the awesome team over at OSCC. Tiffany Doodles is sponsoring the challenge and you could win some great digis.

I added a metal grommet to the center of my flower and used brads and tabs to hold my sentiment.

This is my last entry for their challenge (one for each photo). I used red and brown tones, a bit of the lined flowers inspired the choice of background paper and flowers.

My Creation
Image Detail
Here's where those embellishments tried to rebel. I only had black or white grommets in my stash. The black just looked too harsh and I really wanted to utilze the grommet for a bit of dimension and the unexpected for the cetner of the sunflower. A bit of futzing with a gold marker and it developed an almost distressed feel. I didn't want it to be solid gold and like the bit of black peeking through.
