Friday Flashback: Friendship Blooms

Happy Friday, peeps!  Welcome to the first Friday Flashback of the new year...well, last Friday was a flashback of a different sort :)  Anywha, today's featured stamp set is Friendship Blooms, which was a Sale-a-Bration set back in 2008.  And today's flashback will be on the short side.


Also in 2008, SU! released some rub-ons that coordinated with Friendship Blooms, which is what I used on this card and apparently I never actually used the stamp set.  That is, until today!


I think that sentiment is sweet.  And I do really like that flourish with the flowers on it, so I will keep this stamp set in mind when I work on scrapbook pages.

My color combo today is courtesy of The Color Throwdown:


Nice new challenge graphic by the way, guys!  Your site update looks really spiffy.  I interpreted these colors as Baja Breeze, Sahara Sand, and Peach Parfait.  I miss Baja Breeze and Peach Parfait.  SU!, please don't ever retire Sahara Sand or we'll have words.

The sketch is from Mojo Monday:


Confession time:  somehow I copied down the sketch as more square than regular A2 size, so that's why my card is square.  Which is weird because I almost never make square cards!  Oh well, what can ya do.

Have a fabulous weekend, y'all!

Supplies, last card only:
Stamps:  Friendship Blooms
Ink:  Basic Black, Baja Breeze
Paper:  Peach Parfait, Baja Breeze, Thick Whisper White (how do I love this stuff!  Let me count the ways), Sahara Sand & Basic Black DSP
