Hello! Now I didn't plan it this way, but I must admit that the sentiment on my card reflects my feelings for my collection of Impression Obsession stamps perfectly. I do adore them, they just stamp so darn beautifully! My favorites are those by Alesa Baker. When I first saw the colors for the ColourQ challenge I was a bit stumped. But after going through my vast collection of 6x6 papers I found my jumping off point...rusty, dusty durango polka dots sigh...they make me feel warm and fuzzy!! Pair them with a couple of those favorite stamps and I was off and running!
All of my papers are from MME: Mabel, Hattie and Sunshine collections. I stamped my wispy vine and forget me nots Impression Obsession stamps with black ink and colored the flowers with chalk. All of the dies used are PTI: rick rack border, limitless layers and tiny tags (they're ba-ack Marie!!!). And I couldn't resist throwing in some mini pompom trim.
That's it for me friends, thanks for taking a peek into my little corner of the world ~Lisa
Fantastic card Lisa, love that patterned paper you chose. Are those polka dots I see?? Great focal point and using the balloon die as a hanging tag is genius!
ReplyDeleteOff and running for sure! I love the way you used these papers, Lisa. Adorable tag and beautiful work with the colors.
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun card! Love all of the polka dots! Great use of the colors! Thanks for playing at Colourq!
ReplyDeleteLisa, you achieved perfection with this card! Your choice of papers are fabulous! Your stamped leaves are beautiful and your tag...so clever!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI reeeeeally like this card, Lisa! It's going in my "inspiration file." I so admire how you were able to work with the ColourQ colors and not make an Autumn/Halloween card! I myself sat at my desk last night with these colors in front of me and couldn't make *anything* work. I started to get grumpy and made myself set it aside! :-D Using the black and white sparingly made the other colors work here, and I love the pom pom trim and how the black vines peek from behind! Great!
ReplyDeleteSuper ador-able card, Lisa. Love those polka dots. Fantastic LO even with out tiny tags.lol

Wow, you are on a roll, girl! This card is awesome. ;-) LOVE how you used the colors (and wishing I were this clever with colors!). The DP's are perfect, and I love that little bouquet of flowers. ;-) Nice job!
ReplyDeleteI don't really know Impression Obsession so I'll be off to have a look and will have you to blame if I land up spending money! I love those little flowers on your central piece! Gorgeous colours too!
