Welcome to the Artisan Wednesday Wow Blog Hop with the Artisan Design Team 2012! Team member Amy Bollman's blog is the one before my stop, hopefully you came from there. But if not, be sure to hop all the way around to see her terrific project!
This will be our last week to post with the contents from our May box. We received a challenge to use the colors of Lucky Limeade, Calypso Coral, Summer Starfruit, Early Espresso and Very Vanilla. I decided to run with the idea of using the Best of Flowers stamp set to make a trio of note cards.
The cards each measure 4" square and included the same basic elements: a chevron panel stamped in Early Espresso ink, an embossed Calypo Coral strip, a stamped flower and Stitched Ribbon. This was motivated by a desire for continuity and also by the time constraints. I started working on this project late this afternoon. That's really waiting until the last minute for me!
Next hop on your stop is Erica Cerwin's blog. I know you're going to love what she has to show you. But before you go, please check my supply list below, and make sure to come back next week for our hop! Because it will be the 5th Wednesday of the month, we have some special plans in the works for you!

Cindy, I love these! Love how you used the chevron image as a background, and love the dry embossing too. These are great!
