Well I am back from holidays and decided to try out Stacey's colour challenge to jump start my mojo as I have not stamped in almost two weeks!
I just love the fun, sunny combonation that she choose. With back to school here starting in less than 2 weeks (insert very happy parent here!) I pulled out the Level two Hostess set Apple Blossoms and had my oldest daughter in mind when I created this card, she will be starting grade 6 this year and I can not believe what an awesome young lady she is becoming. I will be slipping this in her lunch bag with of course a special note from me.
For the card base I used Tempting Turquoise and stamped tone on tone with the circles image. The Designer Series Paper (DSP) is from the Hostess Level One Paper Stack and is full of great designs in all 5 of the current In Colours. I especially love the pattern with the lines-it reminded me of a old Library card insert so I cut it down and rounded the corners then stamped the leafy image 3 times, stamping off the ink to create a lighter tone. The cute little apple is stamped in Poppy Parade.I then had to attach a little clip from the Clips Assortment and the add some skinny Daffodil Delight Taffeta Ribbon. The Polka Dot DSP is the other side of the Lined Pattern. To add a little most interest to the design I used the Top Not Die for the Big Shot and stamped the sentiment on it with Early Expresso then sponged the edges with Daffodil Delight Ink.
super cute design, Jenn! thanks for playing the Curtain Call!
