Fabulous Flamingo for TGIFC#165

Hello Stampers!

How about a bright and cheery card today? This card has some of my favorite colors. I do tend to like bright, strong colors. I struggle with dark, neutral colors.

The TGIF Crew posted a really bright color challenge this week…just perfect for me.

 

Here is my card: Fabulous Flamingo for TGIFC#165

Look at all these bright colors! I was inspired by the picture as well as all the cards created by the TGIFC Team. Make sure you check out all their cards. You can see them by clicking HERE.

I layered three colors on the front of this card to make it extra bright. Just pulling in the colors by using them as a border makes your card more interesting. I then pulled the Coastal Cabana water from the base of the card by using the Glitter Dots.  These dots draw your eye up and make you travel around the card. Wink of Stella on the flamingo make her nice and shiny. Bling makes every card better doesn’t it?

These Glitter Enamel Dots are great for a card that is going through the mail. That are very flat and (hopefully) won’t get crushed by the postal machine.

This card was so bright and sparkly I decided to use the sentiment “You Dazzle Me” from Pocketful of Sunshine.  Perfect match up from 2 stamp sets. Love it when that happens.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.

Happy Stamping!

Happy Monday Stamping Friends!

Did you get in a stamp time this weekend? I had a very productive day yesterday. That means I will be sharing some new creations this week.

Today I am participating in a Freshly Made Sketches Challenge. This sketch is simple yet versatile.

I can honestly say this may be the simplest card I have ever created and I love it! Maybe I can learn to create simple after all …

Follow Your Dreams for Friends of SUBA Blog Hop

Welcome to another Friends of SUBA blog hop. I really enjoy hopping with my stamping buddies from across the pond. This month we are focusing on masculine cards. Men cards seem to give stampers a problem. Do you think it may be because we like to make cards pretty flowers and sweet sayings?  

Well, we are here to rescue you this month. I’m sure you will find tons of inspiration on this hop. Click and enjoy!

My Masculine Card
