Stamp Off Beautiful You Color Challenge

Hello and happy Friday!  Susan, Buffy and I are

locked and loaded for another Stamp Off Challenge!

 This week, we are doing a color challenge, offered by

Susan.  She picks such wonderful color combinations!!
You saw a "preview" card for this challenge yesterday,
when I used the same colors with the Cool Treats set.

I know that I use the Beautiful You set, on page 24 of the Occasions Mini, a lot.  I can't help it!  I love this set.  I wanted to watercolor

these beautiful color suggestions.   I used a layer of

the 2016-18 In Color Designer Series Paper,

Gold Sequin Trim (p 178) and 5/8 inch Burlap Ribbon

to embellish this card.

For the focal image, I stamped the girl in Island Indigo,

then water colored the dress with Pool Party.  
Next, I then masked all but the

dress and stamped it with Awesomely Artistic on page 144

creating the dress pattern.   Finally, I outlined the image

with Smoky Slate.

Thank you so much for stopping by.  Now please check out

the challenge samples offered by Buffy and Susan!

Cool Treats with Frozen Treats Dies

Tomorrow is our weekly Stamp Off Challenge.

I always make a couple cards and then try to decide

which to use for the challenge.

 

 

Friday's challenge is a color challenge (check in

Friday to see which colors) and this is my "runner up"

card.  I totally enjoy the Cool Treats set on page 33

of the Occasions Mini.  It helps that they have a

coordinating set of Framelit Dies (Frozen Treats).

This is a very nostalgic product bundle for me, because

as kids, we loved things like push-ups and ice cream bars.

The two step stamped images make very realistic

looking ice cream products!

Sooo, please stop back tomorrow to see my Stamp Off

Challenge card with Buffy and Susan.

Happy Valentines

Just a quick love note.  Happy Valentines Day!

Sealed with Love

As valentines approaches, I guess that I had better post

a couple appropriate cards!  This is another card that I made while

having a "play date" with stamping friends. 

 I'm not really a "heart" person,

so I guess that I am a little like my mother.  Sentimental...

but only to a point.   This card was made with the Sealed

with Love set and coordinating Love Notes Framelits

Dies on pages 14-15 of the Occasions Mini.  I do like

the fact that you have lots of hearts and arrows to play with.
