Mornin' y'all! I'm a bit tardy this morning as I got totally distracted with the updated clearance rack and some online exclusive preorders on the Stampin' Up! website. Don't tell the hubs that I ordered a few things when I haven't used all the things from the last time I ordered : ) There's one bundle that I'm excited about because I think I can use it in my wedding album and get that thing DONE!
Anyway, it's time for a new challenge at SUO Challenges!
This time it's a color challenge...allllll the pinks and reds!
Okay, you don't *have* to use all seven colors on your card or other paper craft creation, but you know I'm an overachiever and so I did. Here's what I came up with:
I had gotten out the Perennial Postage dies for a project last week and then I didn't use them, so here they are now! Some of the patterned paper that I used is retired, but I was looking through scraps and you could easily use all current papers. I picked my background paper first (Pretty in Pink!) and then chose six scraps that I thought would work well together. I stamped the solid heart from Bee My Valentine in five colors, my greeting on a sixth heart, and the I played around with where to place the different colored hearts vs. the patterns until I liked the arrangement. I added some little accents to the top middle and the lower left heart and voilà! I will admit that it took a while to stamp, punch, die cut, and adhere all the layers but I like it.
We hope you'll join us and upload your own creation at the SUO Challenges blog. Have fun!
