Hi again! Another day, another challenge or three...
More Spellbinders from my use-next basket -- Stylish Oval Hello You Floral. It was a very quick make considering I had the Spellbinders Essential Stylish Ovals in my stash and could, therefore, simply copy the image panel as shown on the packaging. Furthermore, the Color Hues Challenge decided the colors for me -- yellow and black. Just a little ink blending on the flowers, a black Copic marker for the small parts, and it was ready for assembly.
The sentiment was cut right into the black oval, with a same size white oval underneath. Woodgrain cardstock for the base, two yellow strips and three black gems -- done!
Today's challenges:
Color Hues Challenge -- Yellow and black
The Pick 3 Challenge -- Pick 3 design elements from the board. I've used ink blending, yellow, and sentiment.
NBUS Challenge #87 -- My never before used schtuff is the Spellbinders Stylish Oval Hello You Floral.

Beautiful card Leslie. Those pretty yellow blooms really pop on that black background. I like how you die cut the sentiment from the black and added white behind it.
This looks stunning in yellow and black. Just wonderful. I often just copy the package when I use something for the first time, then hopefully more ideas will flow, or not! xx

Wow! Very nice. I love the bright yellow color against the black. Neat trick with the cut out of the sentiment backed with the white cardstock. Another great creation.

Oh wow - what a great card!!
Leslie, this is a great die set to use for the CH challenge! The flowers are so pretty, especially with black and white flower centers. The other elements, like the woodgrain background and the yellow strips under the oval, are lovely special touches to your design. Always a treat to see your card in the gallery, thanks for joining us this time!
