You Make My World Go Round

I've been having SO much fun playing with my new Lawn Fawn stamps! And I've also been playing with one of my Christmas gifts from my hubby: a Martha Stewart scoring board. Yay!! Combining these two new toys lead to another entry for the Lawn Fawn CHA Winter 2012 Challenge:


After giving the carousel from Lawn Fawn's Admit One set a whirl yesterday, I just had to try out the darling Ferris Wheel and that fabulous "you make my world go round" sentiment! Once again, I embossed the images on watercolor paper and watercolor painted them using dye inks. I used my new scoring board to make a medallion from medium blue cardstock, and decided it would make a very cool background for my card--and tie in with the "go round" theme perfectly!

My colors were inspired by the CR84FN45 Challenge:

I may have gotten a little carried away with accent colors on this one--I couldn't keep my eyes off all those extra (and very pretty!) colors in the inspiration photos!!

And finally, I'm entering this in Paper Sundaes Challenge #101: Out with the Old, In with the New (I used my brand new Lawn Fawn stamp set and scoring board along with some in-my-stash-for-a-while baker's twine).

I'm thinking that this card has lots of possibilities--an "I love you" card for my husband, an "I think you're great" card for my kids, a friendship card for a girlfriend, a thank you note (especially for someone who's done me a favor!), and even a birthday card. Have I mentioned how much I love flexibility??

Thanks for dropping by!
