Today’s card features the Stampin’ Up! Simply Sketched Hostess Stamp set. I designed this card for the Blooms and Butterflies color challenge. The colors of the week are Early Espresso, Pear Pizzazz and Blushing Bride.
To make this beautiful design I stamped the flower in StazOn black ink. StazOn is a permanent ink so it will not bleed when you water color using your blender pen. I used a bit of blushing bride and pear pizzazz re-inker and a blender pen to color the image. I then cut it out and used pop dots to place it in my circle. To make the blushing bride frame I used the Circle Collections Framelits. The exact circle I used starting to count from the inside of the circles I used circle #4 and #5. For a bit of added interest I stamped the same image in pear pizzazz on the pear pizzazz card stock.
Thanks so much for stopping by BrandysCards. I sincerely appreciate your all your feedback and kind comments. Thank you friends. Have a Blessed Day!

I love all your cards…..but this one is special!!!!
Talk about stumbling onto a gem! I recently found your site – – and love the creative touch you give your cards.
Wow I just found your site and absolutely love the cards you make
I love the way you used the colors in the challenge. The green on green for the background interest was perfect. Also the extra layer of white behind the green is just what was needed. I sometimes forget we can use 2 framelits to make a solid color frame. Delightful card. Thanks for sharing it.
Gorgeous card! I love the soft colors.

As always your work is beautiful. Thank you for sharing your lovely cards. I will case this one right away!
This colors on this card portray a real feeling of softness and warmth. Well done.
I especially love the tone-on tone background you created.
So soft and perfect for a sympathy card. I like that you put the bud below the flower instead of like it really is on the stamp
