Stamp, Scrap, & Doodle Saturday - Photo Inspiration Challenge

Happy Saturday everyone!  Do you ever feel like there are just not enough hours in the day.....all week!?!?!  I have definitely felt that way this week.  There were so many things that I've wanted to accomplish and I am sad to say that my to-do list is not to-done. 

Anyway, I was able to spend a very small amount of time crafting this week to create my DT card for this week's challenge at Stamp, Scrap and Doodle Saturday.  This week we are challenging you to use this photo as inspiration.
What is it about this picture that inspires you?  Is it the peach, pink and purply colors?  Is it the butterfly?  Is it the tea pot?  The fabulous rose?


I was inspired by both the colors and that fabulous rose!  I thought it was a perfect opportunity to create a ribbon rose for my card! I began with a deep plum cardstock (CM) and gorgeous patterned paper from My Mind's Eye.  I used my Spellbinders scallop die for the background of my ribbon rose.  A stamp set from Martha came in handy for the leaves which I stamped then cut out.  The sentiment is a rub-on from Kaiser. I was really happy with the way this turned out and am looking forward to using this patterned paper and ribbon rose again on a page layout (if I get some crafty time in!).

Regina has an Autumn Leaves stamp set up for grabs for the winner of this week's challenge.  So, get inspired and CREATE!  We'd love to see how the photo inspires you so hop on over and join us this week at SSDS!

Thanks for stopping by!
Scrappy Love,
Rene'
