Create with Connie and Mary Color Challenge 206

I was intrigued by this color challenge over at Create with Connie and Mary and it certainly does not take much prodding to use a new stamp set, Lacy & Lovely!


Despite the picture, the card is not lopsided! I just took it at an angle, trying to be creative.  
  • For my first attempt, I stamped the images  on whisper white (see below) and struggled with how to tie in the crumb cake.
  • For my second attempt, I just stamped right on Crumb Cake! 
  • I punched out each image, and mounted on an extra layer of Crumb Cake.  For a little extra, I pierced around the circle using the new paper piercing mat and template.
  • Just added a simple sentiment and done!



  • Here is my first card, where I stamped on Whisper White and mounted on a Cherry Cobbler circle.
  • This is a smaller, 3 1/2 by 3 1/2 card.   I made three of these to use as simple thank you notes.
Such pretty images in this set!

Thanks for stopping by!
