Stretching My Creativity

As part of the Stampin' Up! Creative Crew, this month we were to use a technique of our own and to choose colors that imitate the Stampin' Up! watercolor wonder designer papers.  

My project is a Gatefold Easel Card.  I stamped whisper white card stock with one of the SU! Flower Shop stamps to imitate the SU! Watercolor Wonder DSP & adhered it to the center of card Gatefold card.


Stamps: Blooming With Kindness, Flower Shop
Inks: Daffodil Delight, Island Indigo, Gumball Green, Smoky Slate
Card Stock: Island Indigo, Whisper White
Ribbon: Daffodil Delight
Punches: Artisan Label, Pansy 



Here's another view.

On the Edge

I've seen Tim Holtz's 'On the Edge' dies in our local craft stores but had no idea how to use them. I attended Scrapbook Expo in July (Duluth, GA) and saw examples and purchased the 'Butterflies' On the Edge die. I used the die to make this easel card.

SCS Color Challenge

Today's SCS Color Challenge: River Rock, Chocolate Chip, Baja Breeze. This is a belated birthday card for my sister. I love this stamp... it is really user friendly but I have not really used it. You need to use the two-step stamping method when you use it. I stamped the solid image in Baja Breeze then stamped the line image with Chocolate chip. I sponged River Rock over the center, then added a little sparkle to the center. I sponged Baja Breeze at the top but you cannot see it because of my camera flash. I also sponged the bottom of the panel with River Rock.
