Ready for another Festive Friday challenge?   What is the Festive Friday challenge?  The Festive Friday challenge is a bi-weekly challenge that is inspired by a holiday/festivity.  An Inspo list of 10 items is created using the festivity as its inspiration.  To play in the challenge you need to use 3 items from the Inspo list on your project and enter it in the Festive Friday gallery.  We love seeing what you choose from the Inspo list and look forward to seeing what you create.

I chose from the Inspo list, yellow, pale blue, and easel card.  

I am starting my projects using the Flowering Zinnia Suite Collection a few days early.  I thought about using the can from the Simply Sparkling (Online Exclusive) as a vase and the zinnias were a perfect fit.  The can was stamped on the Daffodil Delight & White design from the Bee Mine DSP, and cut using the Simply Sparkling dies. The rim of the can was cut using the Holographic Trio Specialty Paper and the Simply Sparkling dies.   The zinnias were colored using Balmy Blue, Azure Afternoon, Daffodil Delight, Lemon Lolly, Old Olive, and Granny Apple Green Stampin' Blends.  The bow was made using the Balmy Blue & White Variegated ribbon. The circle and sentiment is from the Sending Love bundle.  

The inside of the card has another strip of Bee Mine DSP and a stem/leaf cut using the Simply Zinnia dies.  The flower was cut and colored like the ones on the front of the card.  

The single zinnia flower is attached with Stampin' Dimensionals along the bottom edge of the flower.  This allows the top part of the flower to act as a stopper and create the easel.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of the hop.
