Hello everyone and welcome to another Stamp TV Center Stage Spotlight Alumni Blog Hop...Whoohoo!!! We are all excited to get together so we can share ideas and provide you with lots of inspiration!!! Carolina's challenge to us today is a limited supply: 1 neutral color for the cardbase, 2 different colors of cardstock, 1 patterned paper, 3 buttons, 1 color of ribbon, and many images as you want. If you came from Jen's blog, you are on the right track!!!
I used images from Rupa Shevde's adorable set called Spring has Sprung for both my cards today. Pure Luxury Ivory was used for the cardbase, Baja Breeze and Pure Luxury Chocolate Brown for the 2 colors of cardstock, patterned paper from October Afternoon, 3 buttons were used along with Baja Breeze ribbon...I used the same ribbon for the buttons. It was cut length wise, threaded through the holes, and shreaded the ends.
Recipe:
Stamps: Rupa Shevde's Spring has Sprung

This one used Pure Luxury Ivory for the cardbase, Pure Luxury Lipstick Red and Pure Luxury Sweet Corn for the two cardstocks, 1 patterned paper from October Afternoon's Farm Fresh, 3 buttons and the yellow ribbon. I used the same ribbon to thread the button and fray the ends.
