Bold & Bright Submarine

Hey y'all!  How's your Thursday going?  It's been raining here since yesterday afternoon and pretty soon I think we'll need one of these...


I was joking yesterday that we should paint the outside of our house yellow and call it the Yellow Submarine.  Ryan was all for it since yellow is his favorite color : )  But this time I've got a lime green sub!  I think my Lemon Lime Twist ink pad is extra juicy because it almost looks Granny Apple Green when I stamp with it.  Anywha, I wanted the boldest stripes and spots in my paper arsenal for this week's Paper Players challenge:


I managed to use all scraps for this card, too.  I almost entered yesterday's dragonfly card there because it has spots and stripes too, but I really wanted to go for the gusto.  And I also really want to dig up my one stamp set with Dalmatians in it too because of that inspo pic on the lower right.

Anyway, I used this week's Freshly Made Sketch:


Usually I pair this challenge with the Color Throwdown, but fear not, I have a Color Throwdown card coming up soon.  I just really wanted to get my bold bright submarine card made before I tackled that challenge ; )

Glad I get to stay nice and dry in the car when I drop Ryan off at school.  Ha!  Stay toasty, folks!

Supplies, all SU!
Stamps:  Submarine Life
Ink:  Lemon Lime Twist, Azure Afternoon, Berry Burst
Paper:  Azure Afternoon, Thick Basic White, Bright & Beautiful DSP Stack

I almost use these papers on my DT card for the same reason this week Christy - they are the perfect version of bold spots and stripes! Love the lime green sub too - hope you are keeping dry! Thanks for joining in with my spots and stripes challenge over at The Paper Players this week!
