Embellish Color Challenge With Fabric

It's time for the latest Embellish Magazine Challenge, and what inspiration we have to work with this time! Thanks to Ashley for taking her camera along with her to Thailand and snapping these fabulous photos. This time the challenge is to use the colors pictured above and to incorporate fabric into your creations. Our sponsor this week is Whimsie Doodles and they were gracious enough to provided us with this brand new and adorable set called How Sweet.

Here is my take...
Aren't those falling cherries too cute?! They were created using the single cherry image, randomly stamped in Pure Poppy.
By using Kraft colored muslin, cut with three sizes of the Cuttlebug Flower Dies and assembled into a flower, I was able to incorporate the fabric for the challenge. Attached hand cut and distressed leaves (made from New Leaf cardstock), then layered the flower over an Enchanted Evening cardstock strip and Twill ribbon loop. Finished the card off with a cute little label and sentiment.
So, stop on by the Embellish Magazine blog and submit your creations for a chance to get your hand on this adorable set! Can't wait to see what you all create!
