I'm so excited. OK, yes I'm excited for Black Friday....but I'm also excited because today is my first challenge with Paper Garden Projects. Our super challenge is to make a card, project, LO using a background stamp. Or use a stamp to make your own background. Be creative and have fun!
I had the opportunity to play with the Cover-a-card Greenery cling stamp by Impression Obsession. This stamp is available at Paper Garden Projects, just click the store name for the direct link. I had never used a background stamp, but now I'm addicted. There are soooooo many possibilities with these stamps! Here is my creation:
I used my Impression Obsession stamp. A Melissa Frances Rub-On and Prima Flower. I used my Spellbinder Nestabilities to cut small scalloped squares. I then took PTI cardstock and stamped it with a matching ink color. I stitched around each sqaure and then adhered them to my card. So easy and a different way to use a background stamp.
Here's the link to the Paper Garden Projects Challenge. Up for grabs are two fabulous background stamps. And if you make a "black" card in honor of Black Friday, you can double your chance of winning! So be sure to play along!
And a quick note. The winner of my Twilight Tuesday blog candy is Tamara Bennett!! Just e-mail me with your addy and I'll get your goodies in the mail!
Enjoy!!!
