Still Feeling Puny

My throat is still very painful today but I'm tired of saying that, so that's all I have to say about it.


I only made one card today. Splitcoast had a challenge today that I thought I'd tackle. I almost always use Whisper White or Very Vanilla Cardstock when making a card. The challenge today was to NOT use either of those colors. SSSSSOOOOOO, here is what I came up with...
This card uses the "In The Spotlight" set, which was a hostess set from the last catty (Fall Winter 2007). I used Blue Bayou cardstock for all the matting and Blue Bayou ink for all the stamping. The base layer has a piece of Groovy Guava cardstock mounted on it. The next panel has a layer of Soft Sky CS that I stamped using Blue Bayou ink for my background. The panel at the bottom uses three circles punched with the 1" circle punch in Soft Sky. The stamped images were punched using the 3/4 " circle punch. The small top panel contains two flowers stamped from the same stamp set and then highlighted with Dazzling Diamonds glitter. The bottom image was punched out using the scallop circle punch and the top image used the 5-petal flower punch. After the top flower had been stamped, punched, and glittered, I added a blue rhinestone brad. Both images are mounted on Stampin' Dimensionals. Hope you like it!!
