Today's post serves 2 purposes….wishing a friend a Happy Birthday and making a difference to the Ronald McDonald House! Stampin' Up! is so proud ( and so am I) that we donate $3.00 for every stamp set we sell! – WOW….what a great cause and what a great Stamp Set!
The Stamp Set is Tag It, and it is just plain fun and makes me laugh with this little critter! The other bingo-bango thing about this stamp set it that it coordinates with the Chalk Talk Framelits. Don't we all love the framelits!
This little "goober critter" makes me laugh and I know my friend Tracy will look at this and say…what the heck…and then she'll laugh! As you all know I love the designer series papers and how do you think I cam up with this color combination?…?…
Remember yesterday…..the Tips for Tuesday, where I focused on Color Coach…well – I wanted to do one more card using the color coach while we have just been focusing on it! Today's color I pulled is Pink Pirouette!
As you can see on the above picture, it will give you a color combination that works well together! Well…what do you think? I know for sure that I would not have chosen these together and I like it! The Color Coach really is a must as it will save you a lot of time and frustration when your "creative juices" are not flowing!
Crumb Cake is my all time "neutral" favorite and I am so glad that Stampin' Up! came out with the Note Card Size of envelopes….did you realize that ( pg. 162)???? For just $5.50 you can get 40 Crumb Cake Envelopes for just $5.50! BARGAIN!!!!! Click Here to order yours today! I truly love this little size!
After "listening to and trusting the Color Coach" I pulled out the Designer Series Papers in the Subtles and the Neutrals! Having a little help from the 1" Square Punch made this and easy and quick!
I stamped my little critter in Crumb Cake and then also stamped it in the Pink Pirouette and Pool Party to cut out the balloons! Quick, Simple, Fun and very versatile!
The envelope goes without saying….a quick liner using the ***NEW Envelope Liner Framelits**** that will be unveiled on Thursday…made this a "quickie" for me today! I will say I am on the fence about this….but all in all – you will simply have to have it!!!
Do you know what tomorrow is….it is the Pals Paper Art Challenge and I am happy to say that I have my card finished and it is an "out of the Susan box"….and I like it! Please, PLEASE try to participate….it is fun, rewarding and it is open to everyone and that means YOU!!!!
I cannot thank you for your support and dedication you have given to me and my blog, I would have never imagined that I could reach so many! I thank you and I appreciate you!
Until tomorrow…..
Susan, I love this card and how you alternated the chevron pattern. That creates even more texture to the card.
Susan, what a pretty card! Thanks for the Color Coach information!
This is so beautiful! I really need to use my Color Coach more often, and then trust what I see like you did.
Gorgeous! Love that little stamp too. He really is cute!
Your “Goober Critter” made me smile too! And, really, what is it? A lizard, an armadillo…??? Too funny!
Goodness….I don’t know how you get all those squares to line up so perfectly.
Thanks for the smile and for sharing!
Hi Susan, what a perfect card. I can’t believe how easy you make it look. I just made a card yesterday using the square punch and it looks all lopsided to me. I used embossed squares and maybe that was a problem.
Going to try and send you a picture of it.
