Sunday Stamps #51 with Dream Pop Papers and Atlantic Hearts Sketch #5

I received a wonderful email from Holly a few days ago inviting me to be on the Design Team for Sunday Stamps and I excitedly joined on!  Sunday Stamps challenges alternate between color challenges like this one and sketch challenges.  From this point on challenges will run every 2 weeks so you have lots more time to play along.  This week's colors are Melon Mambo, Sahara Desert and Daffodil Delight.  Since we are encouraged to substitute similar colors I used papers from the Dream Pop package (May special from Close To My Heart) along with Whisper CS.  

 

 

 The dragonfly frame was cut with the Close To My Heart Art Philosophy cartridge. (page 24 Decorative Layer shift at 2.25" from Banana Dream Pop, also square 6 from Whisper CS at 2.25").  The solid Dream Pop papers have glossy accents on them so I rubbed the wings of the dragonfly with CTMH vintage Watermelon ink and a Q-tip to reveal the texture.  The dragonfly body and head were accented with Pink Glitz Glitter Gel.  The three gems on the left side are CTMH Pink Glitter Gems.  I used 3D Foam Tape to pop up the dragonfly frame from the pretty patterned paper. The greeting is from CTMH For Every Occasion and was stamped in Watermelon ink. The yellow thread outlines were stitched with my sewing machine.

I also followed the Atlantic Hearts Sketch #5--a new challenge blog being offered by Canadian Close To My Heart Consultants.

If you like color challenges I would encourage you try Color My Heart Color Dare this week.  Dream Pop colors are the challenge this week.  You may substitute similar colors if you don't have Dream Pop.

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a wonderful week filled with fun and creativity!
