DOstampers STARS Thursday Challenge #176 - A Grateful Bunch


Welcome to this week's DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge. This week we are having a  "Home Sweet Home" challenge.  Don't forget to scroll down and visit the other Stars creations. 



 

I chose to go with the blue and white elements for cards.  I really love the little butterfly in the Grateful Bunch set and it looks great on this card.  The butterfly bodies have just a touch of glitter from my Wink of Stella marker.  I used my last bit of Not Quite Navy card stock for this card -- miss that color.  I really enjoyed using the glitter tape that was offer in the Sale-A-Bration catalog, hopefully Stampin' Up will bring it back, it is a terrific product.

    FSM 229 and Sale-A-Bration Count Down

    Hello Friends - 
     
    I can't believe we're coming to end of 2016 Sale-A-Bration.  Thursday, 31 March, is your last chance to get a free Sale-A-Bration item for every $50 you spend.   One of my favorite stamp sets from Sale-A-Bration has to be "What I Love".  I made this card for the Freshly Made Sketches weekly challenge using the "What I Love Stamp set and the Metallic Glitter tape (both in Sale-A-Bration catalog).  I colored the  clear glitter tape with melon Mambo ink using a sponge and backed up the stamped images with scraps of Melon Mambo card stock.  Overall sweet card !

    2014-2016 In Color - It's an English Garden

    Earlier this week I posted about the upcoming retirement of the 2014-2016 In Color group.  There are some wonderful colors in this bunch and it is hard to believe they will soon be gone.   Here are some cards I made using each color, Blackberry Bliss, Hello Honey, Lost Lagoon, Mossy Meadow and Tangelo Twist.  I added some  English Garden DSP and flowers from the Blossom Bunch punch to complete the set.




    Tip: The Regals Candy Dots I used are too large for the smallest blossom.  To give the small blossom some color in the center I used my blender pen and Always Artichoke ink pad to darken the center of the flower.  Then I added a drop of Crystal Effects, let it dry overnight and now it matches the others flowers.
