Kim and Tara Challenge #5!!

8:09 AM

It's time for another challenge between my friend Tara and I! I sent her an image and she sent me some dp and we see what we come up with, given the same ingredients!

Well, the lovely papers that Tara sent are new Fancy Pants by Michelle Coleman and the colours are lovely. So I coloured the image, which is Jenny's Glow Bugs by High Hopes, using my Copic markers in coordinating colours. I used my Curved Rectangle Nestabilties to cut her out and emboss the frame and I covered the jar of fireflies with crystal lacquer to make it look like a real jar.

The card base is a 6x6 Tempting Turquoise square and everything else is dp. I added a strip of pink taffeta ribbon and some crocheted lacey ribbon by Chatterbox layered over top. The turquoise felt flowers are also by Chatterbox and the flower brad in the middle is by Imaginisce. Finally, the sentiment is stamped directly onto the dp!

Be sure to slide over to the High Hopes website as they've just released a TON of new images and sentiments over the weekend, so check 'em out!

Well, this has been yet another successful challenge between Tara and myself! Head on over to Tara's blog, Inking on the Edge to see how she made out with the challenge!!

Today is Family Day so the schools are closed and I've got the day off work. So later this morning I am picking my girllfriend, Donna up and we are heading over to a few stamping stores to do some shopping!! Heehee! Have a great day!!
