Stampin Up Happiness Shared Colour Challenge for Stamp-a-holics!
Good day y'all
It's Friday you all know what that means right?
first it's the weekend tomorrow - second it's the 10 min card challenge for the Stamp a holics
and you all know how great I am at this challenge
NOT LOL
take a look at this fabulous challenge I love the colours but some reason my thinking cap took a while to fit on my head correctly he he
the colour challenge is Cherry Cobbler
Certainly Celery
and chocolate chip
at first I was going to use Just Beleive
and then I changed my mind
no really I did lol
then I thought hum?
maybe I could use the new letter press with my new morning cup stamp set
well guess what?
hum?
yhukky
okay back to the drawing board
guess how much time I have used here?
I started at 2:50am
at this point I looked a the clock and it was 4:35pm!
okay so I decided to take out the stamp set called
Happiness Shared
and a BRAND NEW thought!
with only 1 min left I finished water colouring on my watercolour card stock
yhap I know it's a 10 min card colour challenge
oh my goodness
now to add some card stock
I love adding a bow to my cards!
I am almost done
it's at 7 min over at this point!
it's almost done a few more little details and I will have this card completed
I coloured a few pearls
voila here is my card!
the center of my flower upclose
the little chocolate chip pearls
and well there we have it
as you can tell it took way way longer then 10 min
maybe my sis did better!
what do you think??
I am sure she did cause after all she is always such an inspiration

I colored some pearls with my marker and they didn't turn out, the color didn't stay on, did you so something special to them?

Beauty of a card today. I always learn something new from you--coloring pearls with the markers--who knew--well not me. Would still like to see you do something with that Morning Cup set--I have it and need an idea to case! Have a great weekend.

Love the finished card... The colors are so purdy!!!! And that embossing folder is one of my favs.
I kinda liked where you were going with the first card, I'm sure you could have made it work!!!

Another beautiful card! You are SO creative and talented.

Very beautiful. It is so hard deciding what stamp set to use isn't it? How do you color the pearls so they don't look streaked and they dry? Inquiring minds want to know. Hugs and hope you have a great Friday. Are you close to feeling normal yet (I meant health wise) tee hee.

Your card is beautiful! I like how you colored the pearls. Do you need to do anything specail to get them dry?

Blessings to you my friend and belly rubs for my furry friends.
