Last week one of my cards won as Top Nacho, and another one won as a Top Pick at Techno Stamper. Thanks to both, it's always nice to get recognition!
Sometimes cards come together in minutes. Other times I try all kinds of things before settling on something. Today's card took me forever! Maybe because I was trying to fit 2 challenges in it, but the sketch challenge from Techno Stamper this week I found to be super hard for some reason. The color challenge from Nacho Average Challenges was equally tough, I found. Put them together, and I ended up with this:
Recipe (all Stampin' Up!)
Stamps: Flamingo Lingo, Petite Pairs
Ink: Crisp Cantaloupe, Pistachio Pudding
Paper: Pistachio Pudding, Calypso Coral, Whisper White card stock; 2013-2015 In Color DSP
Misc: 1 1/4" Scallop Circle Punch, 1" Circle Punch, Pistachio Pudding Baker's Twine, Dimensionals, Pearl
