Firecracker Designs - Atypical Artwork Blog Hop

Welcome to the April Firecracker Designs blog hop. If you are just hopping in, you'll want to start at the beginning of the blog hop - Pamela's blog. If you got here via Vicki's blog you are on the right track!

This month the design team was challenged to use stamps from any FCD set & create a different image/look with them. This challenge was a lot harder than it sounded. For my card I used the FCD set "Seasons Greetings".



What do you think?

Thanks for stopping by today. Don't forget to hop on over to the final blog hop stop...Sherri's Blog!

Oh wow Heather this is gorgeous! I love the color scheme you choose to use...what a striking flower! Something else I see looking at this set right now is that top of the ornament could be inverted to form a vase if you cut the circle hang top off! OR it could be a lamp if you used the 2 swirly's to make legs under it...oh my here I go thinking what else can be done LOL! I love your card Heather!

I love the colors you used on this card. I'm beginning to look at all of my stamp sets in a whole new way. You ladies have inspired me so much tonight. This flower turned out great. I hope all of you ladies had fun with this blog hop because I sure did. Thank you for being a part of this.
