My fellow Michiganian and sketch challenge hostess (and queen) for Splitcoaststampers (SCS), Rox71, is our featured stamper on SCS today. Roxie is one of those rare talented stampers who unselfishly shares in depth how she creates her cards, a quality I really appreciate. Although I have not yet met, Roxie, I hope to one day.
I literally spent hours perusing Roxie's SCS gallery trying to settle on a card I wanted to case. I kept coming back to her beautiful Black and Red card.
We are required to change two or more things in our casing of the featured stamper's card. Things I changed are:
1. colors
2. stamp sets
3. Cuttlebug embossing folders
4. border punch shape
5. I added piercing and ribbon
Although I love red and black, I used my beloved purple with the black and white. I stamped my Friendship Blooms flowers in Versafine Black, cut them out, and rolled the petal edges around a stylus to shape them. Lavender gemstones were added to the flower centers. I used the flourish stamp from this same stamp set for the background on the top Lavender Lace panel.
Congratulations, Roxie! I hope you are enjoying your day!

Charlene, this is simply lovely. I almost chose this one too. That would have been so funny because yesterday we chose the same book. I guess great minds think alike. LOL I love the colors you chose. Awesome card. TFS :0)
