~ Hey There, Sweet Pea ~
April 7th, 2010 by Holly McMillen
Hi Friends!
So the story goes that I was ordered to create something “happy” yesterday. Early Tuesday morning, I went into my studio to do just that, but was met with the mother of all disasters. Instead of stamping and creating, I ended up in an all out overhaul of my room. My son, Levi, came armed with garbage bags and the vacuum cleaner. Hours later, I was still not finished and was too pooped to create.
This morning I thought I would finally get to stamp. Well, that was a nice thought, but there was still a ton to be done before I could even sit down at my desk. Three hours later, I finally got to ink up a stamp! Good news is, all my stamp sets are back where they belong. All my nesties are neatly tucked away. The garbage is emptied and the floor is clean. Now we get to start the process all over again! ha!
At any rate, I just finished this card which is a combination of yesterday’s color challenge (soft suede, certainly celery and tempting turquoise) and today’s sketch challenge ~ both from Splitcoaststampers.
It took me quite a bit of digging to find three pieces of designer paper with the desired colors. One piece is SU, one piece is Basic Grey and the last is Paper Studio.
Here are my deets:
Stamps: There She Goes‘ Sweet Pea
Colors: Very Vanilla, Tempting Turquoise, Soft Suede, dps
Ink: Versafine Black Onyx, Tempting Turquoise, copics
Accessories: Ribbon, 1/2 pearls, embroidery floss, oval punch, circle punch, hole punch, stitching, dimensionals
