Pals Color Challenge and FMS sketch ....





I have two cards to share today ... one is mine and the other one is Bethany's.  We spent yesterday afternoon stamping and had a wonderful time together.  I will post our other cards on a later post.  Today's cards are for the Pals Paper Arts color challenge and Freshly Made Sketches.  These are the colors to get the creative juices flowing ... 
StarfruitMarinaRealRed


This is what I came up with ... a very simple card for my college box ...

Stamps:  Need for Speed, Vintage Labels
Paper:  Marina Mist, White, Red (non SU)
Ink:  Memento Black, Marina Mist, Summer Starfruit
Accessories:  blender pen, sponge dauber, CB stars embossing folder, SU Strips embossing folder, Nestabilities label six die, Bitty Banner Framelits, pop dots
All supplies are Stampin' Up unless otherwise noted.

Here is Bethany's card for the two challenges ...

Stamps:  butterfly (unknown), So Happy For You
Paper:  Marina Mist, Real Red, Summer Starfruit, White
Ink:  Memento Black, Real Red
Accessories:  Summer Starfruit marker, Prismacolor markers, Nestabilities oval scallop dies, CB sticks embossing folder, Martha Stewart border punch, ribbon (non SU)
All supplies are Stampin' Up unless otherwise noted.

I think Bethany's card came out absolutely adorable!  I love the little bow she added to her butterfly.  The funny thing about her card is that she got it all put together and then realized the base (Marina Mist) was upside down so the card opens up backwards.  Of course, she says it is my fault because I used it to see if I wanted the same color as my base and put it back wrong.  Gotta love stamping with someone!  :)  We both had a good laugh!

Thanks for stopping by and as always ...

Have a great day,
Pam~

Love both cards, Pam and Bethany! The embossed panels on both are delightful and I love the sponging on yours! Love the red dots on the butterfly on Bethany's card!

Both cards are terrific! Yours is a great masculine card! I love the sponging and the embossed background. Bethany's butterfly is precious and makes me smile just looking at it!

Both of these are simply fantastic! The coloring on the jet is fabulous (like Jen B., we LOVE airplanes at my house). The little butterfly is just too cute. Glad you both joined us this week at FMS!

How super to have a daughter to stamp with...lot of laughs. Your card is super and I
really like that 'need for speed' image for the guys.

Bethany's card is too cute with the little ribbon. Hey, I've made a few upside down cards...even recently..LOL Tell her it is over the top adorable just the same.
