Dynamic Duos #47 and Deconstructed Sketch 96

I'm not sure I would ever have put Pool Party and Cherry Cobbler together, but luckily the ladies at Dynamic Duos knew that made a great combination and that's what they've made their latest challenge about.  I thought the Deconstructed Sketch was pretty interesting this week, so I combined the two.



Isn't this a great color combo?  I love it!  And I know that red stems are not exactly what you'd see in real life but I've come to realize that card-making gives us a lot of poetic license.  And I think that a red stem behind a blue layered flower looks pretty cool!

Thanks for stopping by!

Supplies
Stamps:  Bloom & Grow (Verve)
Accessories:  Chloe Stem die (Memory Box); Everyday Enchantment brad (SU); Dimensionals (SU); Pool Party baker's twine (SU)

The red against the pale blue/green gives a great pop of colour. Love the pierced border and pretty bloom. x
