StampingPals Challenge #12 - Favorite Technique - Darling Donkeys & Approaching Perfection

 



Are you enjoying Stampin' Up!'s Saleabration??  I am loving it!  This card uses TWO FREE PRODUCTS (Darling Donkeys & Approaching Perfection stamp sets), both only available until February 28.  I chose these sets for StampingPals monthly challenge (February 2021) which is to use my favorite technique.  

So what's the technique?  Using the fabulous new blending brushes from SU!  They are SO easy to use and the blending is more consistent and flawless with these brushes.  They come in a set of three and can be cleaned and reused to your heart's content.

This stamping is as simple as I can manage.  I love layers and DSP and ribbons but I ditched all of that for this simple design.  The base is thick white cardstock.  I used the blending brush with Bermuda Bay ink to make the hazy cloud around the donkey.  The donkey is colored with Blends and adhered with dimensionals.  The saying is from the fun Approaching Perfection SAB stamp set (stamped with Bermuda Bay ink).  Sometimes simple is good!!

I hope you love this card, and that you'll pop on over to www.stampingpals.com and see what the other stampers have created for this month!  We'd love for you to join us in these challenges.  It's easy and a great way to get your creative flow moving forward.

Enjoy!

StampingPals Challenge #8 - Pack a Punch

Image
  Sometimes I overthink things and really need to just keep it simple.  I think this card works. For StampingPals Challenge #8 - Pack a Punch, the challenge was to use a craft punch to create our card.  I love the shapes that can be used without stamping.  This daisy can be used with or without the stamped images.  And I love the simplicity of it. The In Good Taste DSP is totally my fave this year and it looks great on all sorts of cards.  So classic! I love these challenges because everyone seems to have a totally different take on what to use and how to use it.  That's the beauty of stamping.  We can use the same idea and do it differently, or the same supplies, or whatever, and yet they all come out uniquely our own.  I hope you try it with us.  Hop on over to www.stampingpals.com and see what the others have created!
