Today's card uses the Pals Paper Arts Challenge #24, a simple sketch challenge. I pulled out one of my favorite stamp sets, Fresh Cuts, and combined it with one of my favorite Designer Series Paper packs, Pink Flamingo:
After stamping the main image, I went back and colored in the flowers, leaves and flourish with Stampin' Write markers. Coloring them really makes the images pop! And I just love how well the Word Window and Modern Label punches work together, helping the sentiment stand out. One of the things I absolutely love the most about Stampin' Up! is the wonderful color coordination with all of the cardstock, inks, and gorgeous accessories. You can use their products without having to worry about if your brads will match your paper, etc.!
By the way, don't forget about my blog candy! Click to this post to read all about it! Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful rest of the day.

ReplyDeleteWow! Your card really stands out! Congrats.
ReplyDeleteSaw this on Stampin' Addicts! Very pretty card -- haven't seen Fresh Cuts used in a while and the blue of the flower really pops! (I didn't steal that from Ann's comment either -- that was my first thought when I saw the card!
