Color Throwdown

Hello everyone...it's time for a new Color Throwdown challenge! Isn't this fun boot such a great color inspiration? Thanks to Lori who is our hostess with the mostest this week!

I knew I wanted to use stripes somewhere on my card and I already had this panel stamped from the day my MISTI arrived in the mail.  It was my first attempt at using a large background stamp and sure enough...the first time I stamped it, there wasn't complete ink coverage.  No problem with the MISTI!  I just re-inked it and re-stamped...perfect results! 

   

I'm also playing along with the CAS(E) This Sketch! challenge where Chrissy Larson has this fun layout.  I thought I needed a little twinkle in my stars, so added a neutral silver glitter in addition to the red and turquoise.  

We're happy to announce a new guest designer for the month of March: Holly Brown of Glitter, Stamps and Ink!  Welcome, Holly!

Congratulations also go out to our guest star stamper this week - Kevin McDonald of McCrafty's Cards!
