Did any of you get to participate in VSN (Virtual Stamping Night) on SCS this weekend?? I had a busy weekend but I did have a chance to play a couple challenges and my daughter, Emma even stamped out 2 of the children's challenges!
Christi Snow's challenge For the Love of Chocolate was a great one! Christi had 3 different color challenges based on what type of chocolate you love the most. Dark chocolate is my fav - yum! So the colors were Apricot Appeal, Chocolate Chip and Cameo Coral.
Since you only have 45 minutes to make your card (per the VSN "rules") I elected to go simple. I have this sweet little Heart Flower stamp from Rubber Soul that was calling out to me! I stamped it using Dark Chocolate ink, colored it with Copics and then stamped it again on Cameo Coral, cut out the center heart and popped it on a dimensional. The sentiment is also from Rubber Soul - You Make Me Smile. A button (or several) seem to be my favorite embellishment these days - they just add the perfect touch!
As I was making this card, Emma wanted to stamp too. She pulled out this cute set, Animal Love and made an adorable card. Wanna see?? Go check out the Rubber Soul News page! :)
Have a great day!
Cardstock: Apricot Appeal, Chocolate Chip, Cameo Coral, Very Vanilla (SU!), Stamps: Heart Flower, You Make Me Smile (Rubber Soul), Ink: Dark Chocolate (Papertrey Ink), Apricot Appeal (SU!), Accessories: Dimensionals, Copic Markers, Ribbon (Papertrey Ink), Linen Thread, Button (Foo Fa La),
Your card is awesome! I agree with you that the buttons really do add the perfect touch! And how cute of a card is Emma's? Adorable! How great that she is featured on their site!!!! She had to be soooo excited!
