Tickled Pink to be here

I'm liking this blog thing. I stored several pictures on my computer before I left on vacation so that I would have something to upload while I was on the road. Of course, only about 5 people know I'm even here so far, so it probably doesn't matter much.

I made this card because I had a scrap of shimmery white that I had stamped with Polka Dots & Petals that was left over from another project so I decided to use it and this is what I came up with. Other stamp sets include Print Pattern, Very Punny and Doodle This. The cardstock is Pink Passion and Tempting Turquoise. I don't think I ever got to use this cute SAB set during Sell-a-bration, so I'm making up for lost time.

Here's another Very Punny card. Aren't these fun?! I used Petals & Paisleys DS paper on this one. I stamped the All in a Row bitty flowers across the turquoise section of the paper in craft white and tried to emboss it but it just melted into the paper so it is barely visable. I needed to use some white embossing powder and it would have worked out perfect. Next time! I hate that you can't see the glitter and the details on these card. You also can't see the pinkdoodles around the paisley piece. I used the retired SU flower brads with a white mini brad center. You really have to set those middle brads just right or they just fall out of the hole. Stamp sets: Very Punny, Polka Dots and Petals, All in a Row, Cardstock: shimmery white and Regal Rose.

I'm enjoying watching the Splitcoaststampers challenges and look forward to participating when I get back home in August!

Thanks for stopping by.
