Fastest Florals in the East

Mornin' y'all!  How's your day going so far?  I just made a mess in the kitchen when the blender exploded...at least it was soapy water and not chocolate shake everywhere!  Ehh, it was time to clean the counters anyway.

I had a bit of time in my craft room yesterday and made a quick card.  I wanted to do the speed stamping challenge from As You See It, so it really was quick!


The challenge was to make a card in 10 minutes or less featuring flowers.  Mine took 7 minutes, 7 seconds, and I had to stamp the sentiment multiple times because it was crooked :p  I pulled out my papers, stamp, and ink before I started the timer, but this still might be the quickest card ever.  I love that Best Dressed DSP stack so I'm trying to use more of it before the new catalog comes along and I forget about older stuff in the face of all the new!


I also used the sketch from the Paper Players:


Easy, breezy, beautiful.

Supplies, all SU!
Stamps:  Peaceful Moments
Ink:  Blackberry Bliss
Paper:  Purple Posy, Blackberry Bliss, Best Dressed DSP Stack

    Wow, great job to get your card done in under 10 minutes. Love the stenciled look of the flowers and the green dot background makes it all so spring-like and refreshing! Thanks for sharing with us at The Paper Players this week!

    Love that floral DSP Christy and DSP is most certainly the key to a quick card! Even with a few attempts at sentiment stamping, you managed to come in well under 10 minutes with a lovely card. Thanks for playing along with our speed challenge over at As You See It this week!
