AESTAMPS A LATTE

Hello, crafty friends! It's Sunday, and that means its time for another challenge at Sunday Stamps! :)  This week we are working with a sketch. A fun sketch don't you think?  I love the  Ballon Bash stamp set.  I love it because it is very different from your typical stamp set and I think it can be used for anyone on your mailing list.  It's unique and trendy. That's why I like it so much.  I've used it at my hostess clubs and most recently at my Stamping Spa Day retreat. Color pallet came from the Birthday Bash DSP : Bermuda Bay, Calypso Coral, Night of Navy and Gold. The Bokeh effect was added onto the Bermuda Bay cardstock AFTER embossing the candle image in White embossing powder.

We would love to see what you create!  Have a blessed and happy stamping day! ...

Good morning, crafty friends! It's time for another challenge over at Sunday Stamps!  This week we have a fun color challenge with some great spring colors!  Here's the challenge: Isn't this an awesome color/photo challenge?  Believe me, here in Minnesota, we would LOVE to see a scene like this.  It's still very brown around here.  I guess stamping a pretty scene is the next best thing, right?   For this challenge,  I chose Pink Pirouette, Wisteria Wonder and Pear Pizzazz as my color pallet. Here's my card: I used the Sheltering Tree stamp set and the sentiment is from the I Like You Hostess stamp set.  I used some retired Wisteria Wonder DSP, and the flowers are from the retired Itty Bitty Shapes punch pack.  Tree and words were stamped in Early Espresso ink.  Built for Free Using: My Stampin Blog So now that you have seen my creation, why don't you head on over to Sunday Stamps! and che...
