Jean Bliss!

This week again I decided to turn to some challenges for inspiration and well.....to challenge myself.  I picked two to combine.  First up, the Split Coast Stamper Ways to Use It challenge # 501....Denim Delight!  You need to use denim the color, or denim patterned paper...or something that reminds you of denim.  With that I started looking for a great sketch and decided to use this week's CAS(E) sketch. Here is the link to the CAS(E) this Sketch Blog.

It is a beautifully simple card, which I love.  The color scheme came from here.  Once I finished with the card  I realized how much like one of the design team's it was...maybe that is where the idea of the snowflake's came from.

The denim cardstock is from Die Cuts with a View's Lodge collection.  All the other is from Recollections, with the patterned paper from Tattered and Worn collection.  The snow die is from Sizzix.  The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink's Fillable Frames #8.  I added shimmer to the denim and purple layers.  Also added buttons and sequins.  Love it!
