The card I am posting today is for three challenges. This is definitely a first for me, usually I focus on one or two at a time, but not three. I was over the top inspired by this weeks Embellish Magazine's Colour Trends palette. Of course I needed to participate in this weeks Retro Sketch, which features a fabulous sketch by Lynn and I wanted to participate also in the most recent Papertrey Paper Dolls Spring Bling Challenge. Renee and Suzanne are the hosts this time and have provided awesome inspiration. I have so many anniversaries coming up this spring that I need cards for, three of them are my siblings. LOL
All Supplies are from Papertrey Ink unless otherwise noted:
Cardstock: White, Blueberry Sky, Aqua Mist Soft Grey
Stamps: Heart Prints
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black (Tsukineko)
Dies: Bloom Builders 3, Doily Details
other: foam dots, dot embossing folder (Cuttlebug), brad, jewels (Doodlebug)

What a beautiful card. I love those colors together, and your take on the sketch is wonderful. And, your bling is perfect as well. I've got a bit of time to craft today, and was planning on using that sketch, too. So glad you could play along with the Dolls!!
Super pretty Tracey! I love the gorgeous focal point. ;)
Beautiful in blue! LOVE this!
Tracey this is PERFECT for the trio of challenges you've tackled today! I love your pretty doily topped with the beautiful bloom from PTI. GREAT card ;)I'm finally caught up after the Easter holiday~whew! I hope to get some card making done today!!
Fantastic! You have really distilled all three challenges into their essential elements and incorporated them all! I especially like the way you did the flower in the middle of the doily--I have both of those dies and just might CASE you!
This is just gorgeous Tracey. I love the embossed background and the flower is a beautiful focal point.
Three!!! Your amazing! Tracey this is a wonderful bright card, I do love those colors. Love the large polka dots and the large gems go great together! Beautiful!

Really pretty card, Tracey. ;-) Love the way you've used the colors, and that flower over the doily is just fabulous! The 'bling' is great, and I love the white polka-dot layer. Nice job on catching all those challenges in one beautiful card! ;-)
Tracey, your card is so luxurious! So many layers in your flower, I love it!! You will laugh, but the card I just made is almost identical to yours ... I promise I didn't see yours first though : ) I'll post it in the morning when I have light to photograph it. And big congrats on your Retro Sketch guest designer gig!
