Hello everyone, so glad you could stop by today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today I have for you a card created for the color challenge posted on Inspire.Create Stamping Challenges<\/a><\/strong>, Challenge #043. This challenge incorporates a bunch of very fun, bold, bright colors. When I saw this color combo I immediately went floral, not my usual go to, but all I could see was my favorite rose color combo. I can’t remember the name of the rose, but it is my absolute favorite. I find I just gotta roll with whatever pops in my mind for these challenges, otherwise I work other ideas to death and it shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the opportunity presents itself, hop on over to the the web page of Inspire.Create Stamping Challenge<\/a><\/strong> and check out what several other talented designers are coming up with. So Fun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this card, since all the colors are so bold on their own, I chose to keep the card base clean and simple with Whisper White thick cardstock. <\/p>\n\n\n

For the decorative front panel I used several images from the Forever Lovely stamp set, using my Stamparatus. The images I chose to begin with are a 2 step process, the Stamparatus just makes it much easier to line things up before you stamp, eliminating the chances of a mishap (which if it can, it will happen with me!) With stamps of this sort (photo realistic – almost like a Distinktive stamp), to keep areas from getting too inked up, I used sponge daubers to get the color onto the stamp evenly, I seem to be a bit heavy handed with the ink pads. With the dauber on finger tip, I dabbed Pumpkin Pie all over each flower, I then came back with another dauber and dabbed Poppy Parade in the center of the larger flower blooms. After cleaning and removing that image from the Stamparatus, I moved on to the 2nd layer which is the foliage (all things green in the finished image), I dabbed away with another dauber loaded with Granny Apple Green then stamped that image. The largest flowers coming off the edge in 3 places and the larger leaves are 2 additional images in the stamp set, I dabbed and stamped each image with the Stamparatus as I did above. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
