Dynamic Duos #97: Bold and Cheery!

Good morning, stampers! It's time for another color challenge at Dynamic Duos and this week we are making creations using some bold and cheery colors. Drum roll, please...... Melon Mambo and Tempting Turquoise! Hoot-hoot!  Fun colors, right?  Here's the challenge:

And here's my card creation:
I had a hard time deciding which set to use as so many would look good with these "hot" colors, but in the end....my new stamp sets ALWAYS win. :)
This new stamp set can be found in the Occasions catalog. It's called Another Great Year.   I love the font it has. I recently put it together and decided it needed some attention. I ended up with a few "drafts" on my stamp table, but in the end decided on this particular one. I love it!  It's just so Bold and Cheery, don't you agree?
And of course I had to use my new Chalk Marker.  I just love that thing! It dries quickly and goes on smoothly.  So fun!


RECIPE:
STAMPS: Another Great Year
INK: Memento Black and Versamark
PAPER: Tempting Turquoise, and Melon Mambo card stock
ACCESSORIES: Oval Framelits, Melon Mambo DSP, White Embossing Powder, Tea Lace Paper Doilies, Chalk Marker and white sequins.


Head on over to Dynamic Duos and play along! But, before you go, please visit the other members of the Design Team and see what they have created!

Impressions a Bloom for Sunday Stamps!

 Happy Sunday!  Right now I am knee deep in making decorations for my daughter's upcoming baby shower next weekend and the theme is Winnie the Pooh! lol :)  I am going to be a grandma for the first time and all I can say is that I am really is exciting! I forced myself to clear off my stamping table (well actually just push stuff away) and created a floral card for this weeks new challenge at Sunday Stamps!  The Impressions  a Bloom Bundle is one of my newest favorite sets and I really have not had time to create with all of the very many different ways you can with this set.  Here's my 2nd go. Soft pastel colors? Count me in!  And these petals exemplify the softness you can achieve with the Impressions a Bloom .  For these flowers, I stamped 2 in Peach Pie ink followed by Timid Tiger ink. The 3rd flower was stamped using Fresh Freesia ink. I first stamped off onto scratch paper and then used full strength for the detailed/outline stamp. Next, I d...

Perfectly Pears for Sunday Stamps!

 It's Sunday and today starts another new challenge at Sunday Stamps! Yahoo!  I love card challenges because it makes you think outside the box and at the same time gives you something to create with whether it be a color challenge or a sketch challenge.   For this weeks creation, I focused on the new Online Exclusive Bundle called Perfectly Pears .  This bundle is part of a suite and the products in the suite are gorgeous.  For this particular creation, I focused on the adorable set of pears and a few of the coordinating dies. I stamped the outline set of pears image using Pecan Pie ink and then stamped the solid part of the pear image using Darling Duckling ink which also had some Timid Tiger ink sponged onto it as well. I then took my Darling Duckling and my Timid Tiger Stampin' Blends and outlined some of the edges of the pears to add more depth to each Pear. Next, I colored the leaves and stem using Old Olive, Mossy Meadow and Pecan Pie Stampin' Blends...
