*** Make sure you remember to sign up for my blog candy on the post below!!!!It's Wednesday! And that means I get to share another card I made for one of the Prettie Girls! (see my side-bar for links!) Julie Masse issued a challenge to use chipboard on our projects. I love chipboard, but seem to forget to use it very often --- so I was anxious to get started!
I pulled out my Vacation Collection set from Clearly Wordsworth and my diVine Collection paper pack from Rubber Soul and started brainstorming. I am SO excited because Paper Pretties is now carrying some of the most popular stamps and paper from Rubber Soul in their Corner Store!!! (That means subscribers will automatically receive 10% off!) If you love those little stick people images, check out THIS LINK!
All of the design team from Paper Pretties signed up to go on the stamping cruise next October!!! Yeah!!! So, I decided to give Julie a little glimpse of what life's going to be like on our vacation and make a warm summery card!
I stamped the main image on Shimmery White CS and drew on a tankini and gave her a cute little belly button. LOL! (click on the picture to enlarge) I adhered a piece of pink cardstock to a chipboard coaster and ran it through my Cuttlebug using my new Nestabilities dies. It took about 10 passes, but it finally cut!
Then I covered a piece of chipboard that I had with another scrap from the diVine paper, sanded the edges, and then stamped the sentiment onto it. I was so excited to find that shape! It was perfect for what I was going for!
The shells on the bottom of the card are from MFT's By the Seashore set. I just added some dimensionals to make them pop! The ribbon is two-toned pink satin that I found at Wal-Mart!!! Gotta love a bargain!
Make sure you click on the links on my sidebar to see what the rest of the Prettie Girls came up with for this chipboard challenge! I hope you play along!
