Best of Everything

August 23, 2011 By Connie | 3 Comments

Wow…didn't mean to disappear for a couple days on you! I had a couple back to back classes and time just got away from me! I did want to play along with Technostamper's Lunchtime Sketch Challenge this week! It has some different layer arrangements this week…fun!

I pulled out the set that I received on the Stampin' Up! Alaska Cruise Incentive trip, Best of Everything…I love the whimsical images in this set! I matched it up with the fun colors in the Berry Blossoms Designer Paper package!

So, to make my card, I started with a base of Wisteria Wonder. I added a layer of Whisper White and a layer of Lucky Limeade. On the Lucky Limeade, I added the strawberry pattern from Berry Blossoms. The Wisteria Wonder pattern is the reverse side and I added that off the edge of the Lucky Limeade as the sketch requested. To hide the seam, I laid down Sticky Strip, then ruffled the Ruffled Ribbon in Lucky Limeade color across the front of the card. I LOVE this ribbon! Make sure you get in on my RIBBON SHARES…you'll get 3 yards of EACH color and it is SO beautiful with the coordinating inks and papers! Find out more about my RIBBON SHARES here...I have SEVERAL of them going on that just need ONE more person to fill them!

I stamped the strawberry from Stampin' Up!'s Best of Everything stamp set using my Calypso Coral and Lucky Limeade Stampin' Write Markers, then cut them out. I added them to a 1 3/8" Circle of Whisper White and the Calypso Coral Scallop Circle. One was popped up with a Stampin' Dimensional and I added two Rhinestone Jewels to them. I stamped the greeting from this same set in Lucky Limeade and punched it with the Word Window Punch, then placed it on the Wisteria Wonder DSP.

I absolutely LOVE these colors together! I'll be using them a LOT more in the future!

I love stamping cards, altering 3D items and making little favors. I've been stamping for over 23 years and just had my 22nd Stampin' Up! anniversary in early May. I love being part of something that sparks my creativity and hear people comment, "you MADE this?" I also enjoy sharing that passion with others in my classes! If you live anywhere in the Lewis Center, Delaware, Dublin, Powell, Westerville, Hilliard or surrounding Columbus, Ohio areas, join us! I love to meet new stamping friends. Email me for a current class schedule... I'm adding new classes all the time!
