Pop of Paradise

Good Morning Everyone ~ how about a little warmth for today using Pop of Paradise from Stampin’ Up?

Well it looks like we all might get a break from the cold by the weekend.  I sure hope that is true.  Did you see the retiring list yesterday as well as the new color revamp?  If you are not getting my newsletter you missed the announcement.  You can sign up using the form on the right.  It only takes a minute and you get a free gift from me!

We have a color challenge this time at Hand Stamped Sentiments .

These colors were so Spring like that I had to use them to create a fun Spring card.  I decided to use my Pop of Paradise set to create a fun scene.  I began with my cloud template and using Soft Sky added some puffy clouds at the top of my Whisper White panel.  Next Lemon Lime Twist was used along with the leaves to create some leaves at the bottom.  I also stamped one of each leaf onto a scrap of Whisper White.  Taking a Basic Black and Flirty Flamingo marker, I colored the flamingo stamp and stamped it onto a scrap of Whisper White.  I them cut the 3 images out.  The flamingo was added to the bottom of the panel using dimensionals.  The leaves were then attached on each side of the flamingo using dimensionals.  The completed panel was added to the Soft Sky card base using Snail.  Here is my completed Pop of Paradise creation.
