Blogger’s Challenge Week 23
I’ve been a little busy (OK, alot busy) the last few weeks, plus had some health issues (fortunately nothing life threatening - and I’m on my way to feeling much better) and have not had a chance to participate in the Blogger’s Challenges BUT this week I had a little extra time. This week’s challenge was “Same Stamp Different Point of View”. I had so much fun - not to mention that I also got a couple of new stamp sets that were screaming for ink.
Details for the above sample:
Stamp Sets: Spiral Bouquet (Papertrey Ink), Kanji (SU)
Paper: Ruby Red & Black (SU), Natural White (Classic Crest) , Gold Shine Metallic (unknown), pattern paper (7 Gypsies)
Ink: VersaMagic, Gold Encore, VersaFine
Accessories: Glory Gold embossing powder (SU)
The next two samples - I loved this color combo and look so much I made two:
The above cards details:
Stamp Sets: Spiral Bouquet & Beautiful Blooms (Papertrey Ink)
Paper: Natural White (Classic Crest), Blue Sky & Close to Cocoa (SU)
Ink: Vanilla Craft (SU), VersaMagic
Accessories: ribbon (SU), half pearls (SU)
So I’m loving my new sets from Papertrey Ink - can’t wait to play a little more with them. I’m working on my Christmas cards…… don’t see much light at the end of that tunnel. And will have some exciting stuff to share real soon from Verve Visual. Enjoy and be back soon, Lila

Wow Lila! You got two very different looks out of this stamp set. I’m really impressed with its versatility. I especially love the colors in the second one.

I’ve been really trying NOT to purchase this set…..after all, do I really NEED another floral stamp set?!! But these cards are just so beautiful….you certainly are making it much more difficult to resist! Love all 3, but especially love, love, love the blue and cocoa cards!

My Spiral Bouquet has been shipped, but it’s still in the mail. After seeing these, I want to camp out by the mailbox! I can’t even decide which is my favorite. The Asian card is so lovely… and then there’s that stunning blue and brown combination you told me about. Y-U-M all around!
You’re SO rockin’!
