Stamp With Us Colour Challenge

This is my card for this fortnights Stamp With Us blog challenge.

The challenge was a colour challenge so I used Ruby Red, Pumpkin Pie, Regal Rose, Rose Red and So Saffron card as these were most representational of the colours in the inspirational photo.



I punches all the elements of the bird out from pink and red card shades. I used So Saffron for the branches. Both these parts were punches using the two step bird punch. The small small flowers were also punched, I used Pumpkin Pie card for these. I attached punches items to a panel of white card using a Quickie Glue pen. I added gold Dimension Pearls to the centre of the flowers.

I stamped a greeting in the bottom right corner. I used the 'Thank you' stamp from the Happy Moments set. I make sure the greeting was straight and exactly where I wanted it I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig. This white panel was then attached the a panel of the red shade card.

For the bird's wing and the red frame I used either Ruby Red or Rose Red. I made four cards in total.



I cut a square of Kraft card. Along one edge I punched a scalloped edge using my Scalloped edge punch. I attached the bird panel to the card. I then added a strip of So Saffron ribbon the the Kraft card. This was then attached to a card blank. To finish I added a bow made so the So Saffron ribbon.

Stamp With Us challenge card

This is my card for this fortnights Stamp With Us challenge blog, http://stampwithus.blogspot.com/

The theme of the challenge was 'Get Well'. I thought the idea stamp for this was 'Get well wishes' from the Fun & Fast Notes stamp set. After my win last week I was inspired to get stamping today.

I used a Memento ink pad to stamp the image. I used my favourite ProMakers pens to colour in the image. I added gold Dimension Pearls for the centre of the flowers.



I stamped the image again onto a piece of Regal Rose spotty paper. I cut out the cup and saucer and attached it to the original coloured stamped image with a Quickie glue pen.

I attached the image to a piece of Regal Rose card. I attached a strip of pink ribbon across the card. I tied a bow using the same ribbon and attached it to the ribbon with Tombow glue.I cut out a scalloped frame of Chocolate Chip card using Nestabilities.



I covered a card blank with Chocolate Chip card. Onto this I attached a square of spotty paper. Before attaching the paper I used a curved corner cutter to round of the edges. On to this I added the main image.

Stampin' Up items used:
Stamp set - Fun & Fast Notes
Card - Chocolate Chip and Regal Rose
Paper - Spotty Regal Rose

I made Top Spot!
