The Just Add Ink challenge #39 was pretty straightforward....just add blue. So I used the sketch from Card Positioning Systems 188 and did exactly that!!

Hello everybody!!!

Now I know what it must feel like to get back into the dating scene after a long break. Well, in this case, it's the stamping scene!!! I can't remember when my last post was. I have to admit that I have been slacking a little but I hope to be frequent the blogging/stamping scene a little more from now on. Taking it nice and slow; one challenge at a time!!!

I liked the design challenge on the Card Positioning Systems blog site: #188



And this is what I created...


I've turned the original image on it's side since I preferred this look better. Didn't know how to created the oval, so used a Stampin' Up punch instead. The flowers stamp is SU as well, while the card stock is from The Mango Frost Matstack by DCWV. If you look closer at the flowers, I've heat embossed them using all SU products. I'm a little addicted to the whole heat embossing thingi these days!!! Love how the powder on the stamp changes to a glazed look with a little bit of heat. It's kind of like blow-drying my hair but getting way better results!!!

I'm going to attempt another challenge tonight and hopefully I will be able to accomplish something before my little one wakes up and starts calling for me. Good night to you all!!! Namaste!
