PPA 56

Something new has happened over at the Pals blog.  Head on over and check out their new look.  Today's challenge is the inspiration photo below.
 

When I look at the picture, I see all sorts of colors and objects.  What do you see?  Here is what I took from the picture ...

Stamps:  Printed Petals, Things I Love, Whimsical Words,  Punched Posies
Paper:  Black, White, Poppy Parade, Rose Red, Regal Rose, Tangerine Tango
Ink:  Poppy Parade, Black, White, Rose Red, Regal Rose
Accessories:  Stickles by Ranger, Ribbon (non-SU), Dimensionals, Flower Punch, Itty Bitty Circle Punch, Bitty Button, thread (non-SU)
All products are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted.

I feel I captured lots of color and stamps on this card.  The red shoe is what I started with and went from there.  I used the sentiment from Whimsical words since I thought it brought meaning to the shoe...follow.  The white flowers came from the white flower in front of the red shoe.  I added the pink flowers since they really jumped out at me. 

It's always fun to do challenges and see what happens.  I hope you will click on over to the Pals website and play along.

Have a great day,
Pam~

50 and counting

Pals Paper Arts is hosting their 50th challenge this week.  Congratulations go out to all the artists that make it happen each and every week!  This week is a color challenge using Basic Gray, So Saffron and Chocolate Chip. 

When I was thinking about these colors, one thing kept jumping into my mind...chocolate!  With that thought one stamp set comes to mind...Things I Love.  So I went to work with those two thoughts and this is what I ended up with ...

Stamps:  Things I Love
Paper:  So Saffron, Going Gray, Chocolate Chip
Ink:  Chocolate Chip
Accessories:  Cuttlebug D'vine Swirl embossing folder, CB scalloped square dies, ribbon, dimensionals

I did not have any Basic Gray cardstock in my stash so I went with Going Gray.  Even with the gray being a different shade, I am pleased with the way this card turned out.

This stamp set also has a shoe that can be used as things that you love.  After looking at the shoe, I thought to myself, I would much rather have some chocolate than shoes.  Hence the chocolate being on this card twice.  Hmmm....don't know if I have my priorities in the right order.

Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment.  I enjoy reading them and appreciate each one!  Have a great weekend!
