Flowering Desert - TGIF Challenges Color Challenge - TGIFC201

March 1, 2019
TGIFC201.jpg

Rabbit, Rabbit (as my friend Lori would say)! Happy first day of March. With Spring just around the corner the color combo for this weeks TGIF Challenge couldn't be more fitting. Doesn't this card feel like spring in the desert? Or how I imagine a desert spring might look? All my Arizona & Nevada friends, what do you say?

Google is my friend and helped with the curiosity. I’d say these combos are a pretty good match to our TGIF challenge color combo. Photo credits or original photo source is noted by each photo link.

The stamp set used on this card is called Flowering Desert and it just might be my favorite stamp set from the Stampin’ Up! Occasions catalog. It’s super easy to stamp with and to create unique little scenes. In fact, this card is ALL ABOUT the stamping. Outside of the sequins the entire scene is created using the stamp set.

Want to play along with us and show us what you’ve made using this color combo? We’d love to see it. Check out the TGIF Challenges blog for more inspiration and challenge details. Thanks for visiting!

Some folks try to avoid the frustration of tangled Christmas lights… I say bring it! This card is a tangle of stamps. Over 50 little stamp impressions help turn a blank piece of paper into this! A mess. Haha. #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmaking #cardmakingreels #adventlabelstampset
