you know you've spent too much time on challenges when...

the big blossom was an SU free gift stamp last January, the background stamp (dots and Daisy's) was in one of those limited time catalogs, they are inked with Tim holtz worn lipstick distress ink (as are the prima flowers on the top of them) i curled the petals under with my fingers, the ribbon is a take off of an tutorial link at Caardvarks, the ribbon is May Arts and Offray and generic pink organdy from Joann's. this card is 5X7 in real life, the photo corners are not Heidi swapp but the same size as her large ones. the Button was found in the fabric dept. at Walmart a few months ago. tfl.
you end up with a card like this... the other day there was a post at cardvaarks where there was a link to a flower/ribbon tutorial then today there was a post at splitcoast for a challenge to use PINK... and when your Brain is fried this is what you get, a mess of product... lol
this is when you know its time to not read the challenge boards for a while...
