A limited supply challenge and the weekend!
Thank goodness it’s FRIDAY!!!!!!
Today was indeed a super happy mail day! I received my Gina K, candles and my FREE SU! set!!! Woooo hooooo! I got the set AFTER I had already made my card for the LSC, so I will make something later with it for Beate’s sketch so you can all see it! It’s not a set that Im initally drawn to, but I see the potential and want to do it justice! And you can NEVER knock free goods, can you?
And I will briefly tell you that the S/S stampin up catalog went up online for demo’s today and the new paper is GORGEOUS!!!!!!! There will be rub-on’s in some of the most BEAUTIFUL designs I have ever seen! Plus the handful of stamps that they have shown are very cute and springy! Not everything is doodlie in the preview (although the new SU! set I got which is a new level 3 hostess set is on the doodlie side) and there are 2 pretty flower sets that I will definatley be getting.
Oh! And if you are a hostess in January or placing an order in January then you’ll get an extra treat!
Now onto the limited supply challenge card I made. You were to use 2-3 stamps, one with a heart or a sentiment and then either DSP or an embellishment (this is my goof, I thought it was both) and any coloring tools while limiting your layers. So I rummaged through my stamps and found my ‘Priceless’ set which has a heart in it that I have NEVER inked up! Sad, no?
I embossed the sentiment onto the DSP to keep the focus on the heart trio, and I also stamped the small flower onto the flowers in the DSP that matched the size. It worked out nicely and is a teeny tiny touch that looks swell IRL.
Instructions:
1. Starting with a piece of groovy guava CS cut and folded to standard size.
2. Then I cut a piece of rose red DSP to 4×5 and stamped the small flower from “Priceless” onto the medium flower on the DSP in rose red ink.
3. Using versamark ink, I stamped the sentiment on the bottom right hand corner and applied white EP to it.
4. Then I mounted the DSP onto the cardfront and placed 4 vintage brass (or maybe copper, I dont know they are making memories) in the 4 corners.
5. I then used my nesties to cut 3 white rectangles and 3 scalloped rectangles in Papertrey white and wild wasabi, then adhered them together.
6. Using rose red ink, I stamped the heart 3 times then cut it out and adhered them to the center of the rectangles.
7. Next I placed the rectangles onto the cardfront using dimensionals.
8. And finally I placed a smidgen of crystal stickles onto the small flower on the heart.
Now I need to go mount my new free stamps and get working on my sketch for Beate’s challenge! See you later and happy weekend everyone!
