For this weeks challenge I have chosen the Amazing You stamp set for my creation. I like this set because of the different fonts it has and the star burst design.

Here is the card I came up with!

The background of the card is stamped in Rich Razzleberry with the Watercolor Wash background stamp. To achieve the watercolor look on the background I inked the stamp, stamped off and then spritzed with water and stamped. By stamping off the color isn't so dark. The flower is colored with the Watercolor Pencils (Rich Razzleberry) and then I used a Blender Pen to spread the color. I did stamp the flower twice and cut out the top part of the flower and layered it to give it some dimension.

I have fallen in love with the "amazing". This is also a thinlit that you can get FREE from the Sale-A-Bration catalog. The set also comes with a few other thinlits as shown below.

I hope you enjoyed today's card. Make sure that you go and check out the other DOstamper's that are joining in on this week's challenge.

Over the Rainbow Challenge

With this weeks challenge it reminds of fresh Spring colors. Maybe I wish it were Spring, I am so done with this cold Minnesota weather.

The colors are so bright and cheery!

Of course when you look at the above picture you have to take the rainbow and do something with that!

For the background to the card it is a very simple technique. I took a sponge for each color and sponged those colors on Whisper White Cardstock. In doing the sponging a did more of a Burnishing technique. I didn't want to see where I started and stopped. The colors starting from the left to right, Rich Razzleberry, Tempting Turquoise, Lemon Lime Twist, Melon Mambo and Pumpkin Pie.

The "Celebrate" and "You" is a framelit set from the Sale-A-Bration Catalog. You can get this set FREE right now. I LOVE this time of year with Stampin' Up!. You get to shop and get items for FREE. What's better than that.

I hope you liked this weeks challenge card. You can always join in on the fun! Make sure that you go and check out the other DOstamper's in the challenge this week.

Happy Stamping!

Color Challenge with a little grunge

image from http://s3.amazonaws.com/feather-files-aviary-prod-us-east-1/98739f1160a9458db215cec49fb033ee/2018-01-14/979f07335d8140ce9155951ed8985d17.png

Welcome to the DOstampers Thursday challenge!

This weeks challenge was a little out of my comfort zone. I love the color combo because it is bright and they POP! Usually I don't have a problem with color combos, but this one through me for a loop. I think the Lemon Lime Twist is the one that through for a loop. But I was pleasantly surprise that once you put them together it really is very nice!

In this card I am using one of my favorite stamp sets, Timeless Textures. If you are into the grunge look you will love this set. Do you have one of the sets that is a go to set for you? This is mine.

You can get this in Clear mount: 140517 $20

Or in Wood mount: 140514 $28

Did you happen to notice the ribbon on the card? You must click and enlarge the card, this ribbon came out in the Big Catalog. It is the Ombre Ribbon. You can get it in the colors of Calypso Coral, Island Indigo and Lime Lime Twist. Love them!! The saying comes from the set Beautiful Bouquet. And what is even better it come with a framelit set to cut out all the stamped images.

If you would like to join the DOstamper's every Thursday you are more then Welcome! Make sure you check out the other creations from this talented team.

Happy Stamping!
