FS01 AGAIN....

I just love the very first Featured Stamper Challenge on SCS. Krabearkub (Kurtis) was the first artist featured, and his clean, simple style is really appealing. Please reference my first post on FS01 for more details. Here is the card that I made, and it's actually the 2nd of my Spring Mini swap cards for the group of swappers I'm in. The first is in today's other post. Here it is:


I had so much fun making this card! I used the Spring Mini set called Doodle This, and I'm absolutely in love with it! I love the style of the doodles and all of the possibilities there are for coloring them in, or simply stamping them on different papers and backgrounds. I colored in the flower with my re-inkers (Apricot Appeal, Pretty in Pink, and Regal Rose) and a watercolor brush. I then cut it out and put it on a dimensional. The streaks of color on the white card base are done with my stipple brush and re-inkers in Apricot Appeal, Pretty in Pink, and Regal Rose. I stamped the word "happiness" from the Warm Words stamp set and also "For You" from Happy Everything on a piece of vellum and adhered that to my white base with a staple and a glue dot (hidden behind the piece of pink organdy ribbon). I hope you enjoy it, let me know what you think!
