Springy Challenges

Posted on March 21, 2010 by Shauna

This little card is one I just whipped up for two different challenges.  It’s leaving me wanting a bit more, but I think I’m happy with it over all. 

It goes with the Sketchtastically 83 challenge over at Clean and Simple Stamping, and the Color Cue {2} challenge at W Plus 9 Design Studio.

The sketch and colours:

FTL83   color_cue2

To be honest, I was pretty darn lucky to find any light yellow paper in my craft room.  It’s not a colour I’ve ever worked with!  Luckily I had 2 sheets sitting there for times like this.  =:)

The flowers are from an acrylic Inkadinkado set, with gemstones in the centres.  The sentiment is a great stamp by AMuse.

I think the ribbon part would work a bit better with wider ribbon.. and some tweaking.

About Shauna

I fell in love with the art of rubber stamping when I was 12 years old. I blame my grandparents. I already had every crafty hobby imaginable when they bought me a few stamps, an ink pad, and some embossing powder. I was hooked. From that point on, no special occasion has gone unmarked by one of my hand-crafted creations. Scrapbooking came next, and though it isn't my first love, it's a close second.

    Yeah! I’m so glad you were able to give that yellow a chance to play! This card is LOVELY! Excellent use of Dawn’s delightful color palette! I’m so glad you had time to play along and share your talent! Wonderfully done!
