Still, the sky's the limit for peacock colors here. And that's the flashback part of the Friday Flashback, so now it's time for a brand new creation!
I decided to be contrary and make a World Treasures card *without* the peacock. I mean, I love that peacock, but these flowers are perfectly lovely too, and I was suddenly curious this afternoon as to how Crushed Curry embossing powder would look on Blackberry Bliss cardstock. Answer: awesome. But use your Embossing Buddy, the first time I had powder all over everywhere. The sentiment is from World Treasures too, I took a marker to the sentiment stamp in the set and only inked up "friend". Tip: make sure your stamp is very, very clean and DRY or you'll get a ghost image around the part you ink up. And Halloween is over.
So the color combination for today's creation is from Fab Friday:
Another awesome fall color combo, amirite? Might have to use that one again! Y'all know how much I love Crushed Curry and Blackberry Bliss. And they work great together.
The sketch is from Freshly Made Sketches:
So even though it took me a long time to settle down enough to actually make something today, once I sat down the card came together in, like, ten minutes. Woohoo!
And that's it for today's Friday Flashback, I hope you enjoyed it. Happy weekend, peeps!

I love it! Fantastic colors and the embossed flowers with the candy dots look awesome! Yeay for trying new things!
Beautiful! I love how bold and graphic your card it! Great decision to use the flowers and Crushed Curry embossing powder! Thanks for sharing at Fab Friday!
What a spread of gorgeous cards! The yellow embossing powder on the purple is a real stand-out! Thanks so much for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches.
I am impressed at how thoroughly you use a stamp set. The peacock is definitely worthy of multiple cards. So are the flowers. I love your use of the bold colors - keeps it in the spirit of the entire set! Thank you for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.
LOVE the colors and that flower stamp is awesome. LOVE IT!!! Of course you know me and peacocks. Wonder why my two favorites (peacocks and hippos) also involve Mimi taking me to see them when I was a kid. She figures into a whole lot of my good childhood memories, that's for sure. Have a great day and love you, love you!
Great display of cards! Love the way you incorporated the colors from this challenge in your last card. Thanks for playing along with this week's Fab Friday sketch!
