Guest Designing for STAMPlorations

Hello everyone!  Recently I was asked to guest design for STAMPlorations Sketch Challenge #17.  I most happliy accepted.  They have a really great sketch for this challenge too.  Take a look...

So many ideas came to mind.  I broke out the Ecletic Florals set by STAMPlorations and got to work.  Here's what I came up with...

I made some masks using the flower stamps and stamped my flowers into an arrangement using lime and aqua ink (ColorBox).  I stamped the jar in black then shaded it using TB1 Spectrum Noir marker and blender pen.  I added a bit of glitter to the aqua flowers.  I cut a panel of aqua cardstock to layer underneath my main image panel and added some lime green plaid washi tape.  I stamped my sentiment (Stampabilities) in black.  Love this colour combo.  So bright and fresh!

I hope that you will all join in on the fun for this sketch challenge.  You really need to check out the DTs cards too.  They are fabulous!

I'm linking up to the following challenges:

The Card Concept - a lovely colour combo challenge.  My card would fall under clean and simple.

Addicted to Stamps and More - anything goes
TIME OUT challenges - celebrations (there's an optional twist of using a butterfly but I decided not to)

Well, I mentioned in a previous post that this month marks my second year of blogging.  I was going to do something special this month but it's been so busy that I haven't been able to arrange it.  So, since we go on holidays in about a week and a half I'm going to postpone the celebration until after we get back.  I want to do it properly.  So, stay tuned for some fun!  :-)

I hope you all have a fabulous day and thanks for visiting!
