Happy Wednesday, everyone! Hope your week is going well so far! Today starts the new Occasions catalog as well as the Sale-a-bration promotion! Always a fun time for Stampin' Up!, so I decided to use the new Beautiful Day set to make a card using these pretty colors from Sunday Stamps:
The challenge requires you to use at least three of the colors, so I used Sahara Sand, Flirty Flamingo/Cameo Coral and Night of Navy:
I stamped a background using images from Touches of Texture, then added a panel from Petal Garden DSP and a little scallop and diecut layer cut from a piece of Naturally Eclectic DSP along the edge.
I inked up floral image with Versamark first, then Flirty Flamingo, stamped it on a piece of watercolor paper and heat-embossed it with clear embosing powder. Then I loosely watercolored inside the embossed images in Flirty Flamingo, Cameo Coral and Sahara Sand. I added some speckles, fussy-cut it out and popped it up on some dimensionals.
My final touch was some sequins and a sentiment from December's Paper Pumpkin kit! This card is already in the mail to a special customer! Glad you could pop in to see it!
I gave Cassidy a little "robot" kit for Christmas...silly me, I thought you could actually make it DO something, but it was more of a kit to learn how to BUILD something....I admit, I was a bit disappointed, but she learned what all the parts were, lining them up, and then learned how to use the tool to assemble it:
And with a wee little bit of help, this is what the robot looks like:
He's a wee little thing, too...although in Coastal Cabana and Basic Black, he's quite stylish, don't you think?!!! Have a great day and be blessed!

That robot is so sweet. You are helping to create a future robotics engineer, maybe? Your card is put together nicely too! Off to Perry's scan and chemo. Then I return to the card room...to clean up the MESS!
