Challenge Judith / Gerdine

A couple of weeks ago I got an e-mail from Judith. She asked me if I would like to participate in a challenge.  She had some papers with bigger patterns and as you know I like to work with patterned paper. Judith challenged me to make some cards with these papers. Of course, I'd like to do that and that made that I received an envelop with the papers and Judith provided me with buttons, ribbons and flowers as well. Well, you'll probably think: piece of cake! But  no ideas came up in my mind to work with. Finally, I made a card, but I don't want to show you the result, LOL! So it is  really a nice challenge, but I couldn't manage. Even before sleeping I was thinking of this challenge. Fortunately, I didn't have nightmares...
Yesterday morning I saw the light, thought of some papers in my stash and started to create! And it worked! Here is the result. The patterned papers in the circle and the lower part of the border are papers from Judith. I combined them with a purple paper of the Wisteria collection by Basic Grey. I stamped purple polka dots as a background and some flowers which I punched out. The sentiment is from Pipoos. The button is one of Judith.

Judith made also a card with the same patterned paper. Please, head over to her blog and see what she has created! 

Dear Judith, thank you for the challenge and the lovely package you have sent me. Hopefully, I get many more ideas which I can show with your papers! 

Saturday I showed you the flowers I bought that morning. I still enjoy them and now they look like this, still beautiful! :
