I am happy to say that we are finally catching a break on our weather and Spring appears to be just around the corner. We are enjoying beautiful days, now we just need it to warm up. The colourful bright sunny days is a reflection of the Pals Paper Art color combo challenge. I decided to combine that with the simple and elegant Freshly Made Sketches challenge to prepare a Thank you card using the Chalk Talk stamp set and framelit. The Pleasant Poppies stamp was added just to one side of the background layer. I masked the edges of the part I did not want inked, removed the tape and stamped the inked part into the Wild Wasabi background for a subtle effect. I hope you enjoy it and please take a moment to share your thoughts. Thanks for visiting today. Come back soon!
Happy Stamping!

Miriam, I love your use of the Pleasant Poppies as a side image in the background. Very pretty! Thanks for joining us at Pals Paper Arts this week.
ReplyDeleteThank you Diane for stopping by and for taking a moment to share your thoughts. I love the Pleasant Poppies background and need to be careful not to overuse it! LOL

DeleteMiriam, What a great combination of both challenges! I love the way you've included the poppies on the side. Thanks for playing along with this week's PPA color challenge.
ReplyDeleteOh Brian, thank you so much for visiting and for your kind words. The Pleasant Poppies is a big favorite and when I can add just a bit of it to any project, it makes me truly happy. I am glad you enjoyed it.
DeleteYour card just blows me away, Miriam! I love how you combined the challenges. I think my favorite part is the addition of the poppies. This is a perfect way to use this stamp. Of course, the single rhinestone adds just the perfect touch of bling! Thanks for sharing at Pals Paper Arts this week!
