Roses on Paper Challenge 8 - Quilt Card

This is my entry for Roses On Paper Challenge #8, which is to create a quilt card.

For my quilt, I used papers from a collection called Joy's Garden from Hot Off The Press. I used a larger version of the same papers for the background behind the circles. I used the Scallop Circle die cut from Stampin' Up! to cut out the quilt and a piece of Almost Amethyst card stock for an added touch. The stamp is from the new Spring Kit from Magnolia Stamps. I absolutely love the new kit. It is full of butterflies, lady bugs and bees, which I adore.

The flowers are Prima's from a collection of cream-colored flowers. I used my Copics Air Brush System to add matching colors to the flowers. Now I need a whole bunch more white flowers. I love that technique.


I used the branch punch and leaf punch from Martha Stewart, and topped off the flowers with Dew Drops.
The choice of colors for this challenge came from the March Color Challenge for the Magnolia-licious yahoo group. I am so pleased with the result. All of these challenges are such great inspiration.
Have a happy Thursday. The weekend is almost here!
