How is your day going? Have you been able to get crafty? I sure hope so! I had a moment last night to make a little something for the latest 10 minute Craft Dash over at Paulina's blog. I sure do love this challenge, especially when I am sorta in a hurry. ;0) My time wasn't the greatest, but I did come in under 10...like 9 min. 25 sec.
So, the colors she chose are some of my favs, and I used a couple of stamp sets that you can find in the i {heart} papers store. The first is Leafy Greens from Paper Smooches. Oh my, do I love those big solid leaves. I stamped them in Hero Arts Butterbar, Mint Julep and Soft Brown around my white cardstock panel. I didn't really have a good aqua dye ink...hm.
I then took the Thanks from Chit Chat and added a bit of brown Copic marker to color them in with a bit of a gradient. To finish it off, I adhered it to a Kraft card base, and added a few Studio Calico wood print sequins. Now, I must confess, after I stopped the timer, I went back with a clear Spica glitter pen and added a bit of shimmer to the Thanks. You can't see it very well in the pic.
Here is the graphic:

ReplyDeleteLove this! Gorgeous use of that leaf set - I have it and don't use it often - this is super inspiring! And those wooden sequins - swoon! Saw you're from North Canton - I'm in Canton for the month visiting my parents - always up for some crafty time :-) Thanks for joining us at the 10 MInute Craft Dash!
