Stamp Club Challenge

Hello there again!  It is bitter cold in Northcentral Wisconsin and snow on the way.  Such is our winter life in our beautiful state.  Today I'm posting our stamp club sketch challenge for February.  I typically don't use pastel colors but I had this card stock - So Punny by Doodlebug Designs - in my Valentine stash and then thought of one of my granddaughter's summer birthdays and think this is perfect!

The birthday die set is from Poppy Stamps.  The card is pretty self-explanatory.  I used yellow card stock as my A2 base.  Stay safe and warm wherever you are!

February Stamp Club Shoe Box

Many, many months of no blogging!  Thanks, Pat Schulz, for urging me to get back to blogging.  I would also like to build my viewer base so please feel free to share my blog link with any friends who may be interested in viewing my handmade cards.

It's my turn to bring one of two shoe boxes to a monthly stamp club which I belong to.

All three dies - balloon, "love" word and deckled rectangle are Penny Black.  I started with watercolor paper and sprinkled two difference reds and yellow Color Burst and then spritzed with water.  (Pearlescent water would have been pretty, too).  I then cut the watercolor paper with the balloon die.  The white deckled card layer was sponged with Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Ink using a smaller deckled die cut as a template.  The K & Company little sticker hearts are from my stash and may no longer be available.

Thanks for taking a look at my recent creation and will be posting more very soon!
