Blazing Mango

Yikes!  As You See It #247 is another speed challenge - "blazing blossoms!"  That might be a tough one to speed through, lol.
OK, what's a way I could get some speedy bang for my buck?  DSP, of course, and how about 2-step stamping?  I happen to have just the thing in the Fine Art Floral suite!  I love this big brush-stroke blossom, and it has LAYERS - that normally I would heat-emboss, or gild, but works just as well for color accents!  I assembled everything I thought I needed, and started the clock!  I Rectangle-Stitched my layers, stamped my flower in Mango Melody with Pumpkin Pie accents, added the leaves and then quick cut the sentiment from a scrap of Mango.  I assembled everything onto my card base, trimmed my envelope flap, and then hm, sorry, gonna have to have a few sequins, lol.  This added another minute and 10 seconds, for a total time of 8 minutes and 23 seconds!  Not bad!  Good thing showing a picture of my desk when it's over isn't part of the challenge, lol.
