Tropical Thinking of You

When I saw the color challenge at Color Throwdown I knew exactly which stamps I wanted to work with. I bought this set from Sweet-n-Sassy (landscape silhouettes) quite a while ago and just never took the time to ink them up. I used the current sketch challenge From the Heart sketch. It worked so well with these colors too. I love the final card.

Merry Monday #147 and CAS(E) this Sketch #111

   Today's card is based on this sketch by CAS(E) this Sketch and features stars for the Merry Monday Challenge. I wanted a card that was bright and colorful so I started with the paper from Recollections that I've been holding in my stash. The sentiment stamp is from Inkadinkado set called Warm Holiday Wishes and it has stars mixed throughout the lettering. The red and green stars in the lower corner are affixed with foam adhesive to give some dimension. Supplies Stamp - Inkadinkado (Warm Holiday Wishes) Ink - ColorBox (Cranberry) Paper - Recollections Dies - MFT (Layered Label Die) Star Punches White Brad
