A tough color challenge
Good morning Peeps!! One of my cards today was made for the color challenge on splitcoast and it was a toughie for me!!! Kiwi Kiss, tangerine tango and pixie pink......really pixie pink???? LOL!! I wanted to use my pocket silhouettes set from SU, it had never seen ink and was getting lonely!! This card is sooooo not a favorite of mine but I have definetly made worse, so I decided to post it anyway!! I used alot of punches on this card, a Martha Stewart edge punch and SU's new scallop square punch and the 1 1/4 inch and 1 3/8 inch square punch and the double slot punch, which by the way, I decided to add that bow after sticking down my card, so I had to peel it up and try and slide the punch in and line it up. I had to finish cutting out the slots with my craft knife because of the two layers of cardstock.
The next card is one I made for Taylored Expressions Cupcake Challenge Another card I had trouble with, I did finally end up liking it until this morning. I put stickles on the ghost cupcake last night and when I was taking the picture of it today, I noticed that the black marker I used on the paper pieced cupcake liner had bleed into the stickles some. Darn it, just not a very good stamp day!!!
Well, thats about all for today peeps, thanks so much for stopping by and leave me a comment, so I know you have been here!!!
Aww Vicki, I wouldn't have known it was a bad stamp day for you, I think your cards are fantastic! Love how you managed the colour challenge, I didn't do it today as these colours made my eyes hurt LOL! I couldn't do yesterday's either as I don't have pattern napkins or freezer paper! Not too good on the challenges for me this week. I love the cupcake card too, annoying about the stickles. Had a similar disaster myself on a recent card and have no idea why that would happen, but it does now and then. Hugs, Chris
ReplyDeleteI love your Trick or Sweet card, Vicki! And the marker that bled into the stickles just makes your ghostie look spookier! :) Thanks for playing the challenge!
