Good morning, stampy friends! Sunday means a new challenge from The Paper Players! I hope y'all enjoyed Jaydee's feminine card challenge last week; today, Claire has a great color palette for us!
I had a bit of a think about these colors and then I decided that the obvious choice was a dinosaur. A T. Rex to be specific:
I haven't made a dino card for my dino-loving pal Krissy in a while, so this was a great time to make one! I stamped the T. Rex from Whimsy Stamps and colored him in with Stampin' Blends; I still have the 3-pack of Coastal Cabana Blendabilities from way back and WHEN is SU! going to make Blends in Gorgeous Grape and Coastal Cabana?! Anyway, I wanted Rexy here to look like he was peeking out of a window, and my old reliable Rectangles Stitched dies made that easy. Those enamel dots are some of the first embellishments in that style that SU! ever produced and I bought like five packs so I still have a bunch. They have all three of the challenge colors!
I actually stamped and colored two Rexies because I wasn't sure I liked the eyes on the first one, but I decided he needed his own card anyway, so here he is:
I didn't have enough of that Gorgeous Grape polka dot pattern to exactly remake the first card, so I just played around with some DSP scraps for a different layout.
