Rick Rack Rose

Hello everyone....hope you are having a great day so far!! This is the first morning all week that I didn't have to get up early so what do I do?? I wake up at the crack of dawn...oy vey!!! I am sooo not a morning person but my sweet hubby gets up at 5:00 AM every morning....too many years in the US Army, I guess...LOL!! Anyway....I did a little stamping last night during Project Runway....I just love that show!! Someone in blogland made a flower out of rick rack and I decided to give it a try. It took me almost an hour ...it's held together with glue dots and Score Tape so don't look too closely!!

The background cardstock is from A muse and the sentiment is from A muse's Contemporary Greetings set.
Sewing was done around the background layer and the Spellbinder's leaf diecuts, doily, and scrunched ribbon finish it off.

I used the same colors that were on my counter for the Color Throwdown #155 Challenge from yesterday.
This is also for a few other challenges:
1. Dare to be Sassy Challenge - use more than one diecut
2. Creatice Card Crew - hand made flowers
3. The Pink Elephant - stitching
4. The Shabby Tea Room - polka dots

Thanks for visiting today....hope you have a super wonderful day!!!

Simply gorgeous!!! Your entire card is so lovely and that ric-rac flower is beautiful! I wanted to try to make one of those but probably don't have the patience you have so won't even attempt it! Yours is lovely though.

Beautiful card Joan, the pink rose is striking against the shade of green you chose. I have never seen a rose made of rick rack before, clever idea. I can see where the weight & bulk of it would make the adhering difficult.

btw, saw Project Runway also, liked the winning outfit but really liked the fabric that was dyed.
