Hello
I had something completely different in mind when I saw the challenge at Colour Me, but then I saw the MFT sketch. That sent me looking through my MFT dies for flowers & I also came across the Framing Flourishes, which I love.
That meant I needed little flowers so went with my favorite center from Prima Donna Petals--makes a great little blossom on it's own, I think. The shape of the Vertical Greetings die complimented the flourishes, so used it for my sentiment which is from Peaceful Wildflowers & is stamped in Memento Morocco. The flowers are embellished with Sticko gold dots & I added 3 tiny pearls to finish it off. This will probably go with a RAK package to a blogging friend. I used scraps except for the card itself, so will enter at Pixies Snippets Playground.
Quite the day--first bath at home for Fritz--the groomer has done the others. It took both of us & hamburger bites, but we now have a sweet smelling pooch! Hopefully each one will get easier. Enjoy the rest of your weekend & thanks for coming by.

Wow....fabulous take on this sketch! I love it looks like you had fun making it too. Those colors are just perfect too. Just so sweet!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty Greta. What a hoot it must have been washing Frtiz. Glad your CCC card has arrived safely.
ReplyDeleteTotally lovely Greta!!! Have a wonderful Sunday!
ReplyDeleteAH, dog bathing...now that the weather's better I'm ready to tackle that myself. I'd honestly rather bathe the cats, at least they're small & squirmy ;) I've loved all your creations the past little bit - I'm so behind in commenting that I'm "making an appearance", lol!
ReplyDeleteLove your card! I've never bathed a dog but my cat once got covered in oil and had to take a turn in the tub... not easy! Jo x
ReplyDeleteBath time for the Persians I used to show was never the problem it was the hair drier afterwards! I had to use a special quiet one on a low heat. Card looks lovely with the scrolls entwined with the flower centres. Hugs Mrs a.
ReplyDeleteIt took me awhile on how to approach the MFT challenge and still came up with nothing. Love your take on the sketch, Greta! It is just so feminine with all the curls!
ReplyDeleteIt must be fun to bath the dog!
Pretty flowers and they are perfect on the flourishes!
ReplyDeletebeautiful take on the sketch and the colors, greta!! i love that you chose to use flowers and then link them together with the flourishes... so happy that you were able to play along with Colour Me!
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty design Greta, love the movement! Max looks like a little drowned rat when he's in the tub! Give Fritz a pat on his soft sweet smelling head from us!!
ReplyDeleteThis is a pretty card. I like your take on the sketch!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! Excellent job combining the challenges :) Thanks for sharing with us this week at Colour Me...! Sure hope to see you around again soon!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is very cute! Love the flowers! Thanks so much for playing along with us over at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge!
ReplyDeleteAdorable card, Greta! I'm glad your hubby helped with the bath - I'm sure it was a lot easier with two sets of hands.
ReplyDeleteOuuuuuuuuuu! I really like the flourishes and flowers! A really beautiful card!
ReplyDeleteDarling card, Greta! I love the design!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure Fritz appreciated the benefit of his bath: smelling clean.
Very pretty and great use of snippets. xxx
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card Greta! Love the use of snippets too.
ReplyDeleteI did giggle about Fritz and his first bath at home - brought back memories of one little Bichon Frise howling the place down when we gave him his first bath :)
Hugs, Di xx
Hahahha...I have fond memories of dog-bathing and the ensuing shaking and house-romps my pooches did, not to mention the squirming out of the towel as quickly as possible. Hilarious times! Bathing and hamburger bites - fabulous connection! I think he'll be looking forward to baths, especially with savory treats involved. Your card...GORGEOUS! Inspired take on the sketch, and those flowers and flourishes are sooooo lovely! Hugs~c
ReplyDeleteCongrats Greta on your win! Lovely Card.
ReplyDeleteReally pretty card, love it.
