I have a fun little card for you this morning. This set uses the color challenge combo from Stamping 411 this week-Color Inspiration #137. Pretty isn't it!?! The tangerine tango was stamped 3 times and then layered with dimensionals. Then I added a few teeny tiny little pearls on the top one to get this oh so pretty embelishment. The certainly celery background is also popped up on dimensionals. Sometimes, at least for me, when a card is *to* simple it helps to add a little dimension to make things a little more interesting. The sentiment was stamped before the embossing so that it would give a good impression-ask me how I know this is the better order of things *wink*
Materials used (all SU unless noted otherwise): great friend; tangerine tango, wild wasabi, certainly celery cs; tangerine tango, wild wasabi ink; scallop edge punch; embossing folder (quikutz); pearls
We took down the little lady's toddler bed and set her brand new BIG girl bed yesterday! She has been asking for a bigger bed for a week or so and DH and I decided it was probably finally time for our little girl to "grow up" *sniff sniff*. She helped my DH take apart the old toddler bed and set up the new full bed and then proceeded to have a BLAST laying in the pillows of her new bed!! Last night she asked me to sleep with her so we could "cuddle the night away" It was SO cute of her to ask I just couldn't resist :) I know all too soon the day will come that she's "too cool" for me so I have to take advantage of this kind of stuff now ya know?
Today we're off to the mall to get some new shoes for my growing big girl. She *needs* some new light up shoes...cause every four year old does of course. So we are headed to find her some :) I hope that whatever you do today it's a great time!!! Thanks for stopping by today :)
This is stunning! Love the mix of textures. Thanks so much for playing along with the Stamping 411.
