It's been a crafty kind of weekend - rain and gale force winds! Not much else to do but hunker down and make some cards. :) For this card I used the colours from The Colour Throwdown and a sketch from Skipping Stones Designs. This is my first time using my Skipping Stones stamps and it's also their 100th challenge - a perfect time to join in! I turned the sketch on it's side and used stamps from two different sets: Dandelion Dreams and Frills. Can't wait to play with some more! Supplies Used:
Cardstock: (White) Bazzill Basics, (Crumb Cake) Stampin' Up
Stamps: (Dandelions butterflies from Dandelion Dreams, Plaid from Frills) Skipping Stones Designs
Inks: (Old Olive, Baja Breeze, Crumb Cake) Stampin' Up
Other: (Baby Blue Stickles) Ranger
