I think we are seeing the final days of summer here in Maryland. The weather the past 2 days has been in the low 80’s but a change is headed our way. It is supposed to turn cooler and a chance of rain every day. We typically have an Indian Summer in October but our weather this year has been wacky so we’ll see.
With the changes in the demonstrator agreement, I am searching out some new blogs that focus mainly on Stampin’ Up supplies. I am hoping that by looking at blogs that focus mainly on Stampin’ Up images it will help me to notice other stamps that will give me more variety in the cards I post. I have found several that I really like and one of them does challenges so I decided to use it for today’s card.
My card today fits into 2 challenges. I used Tracy’s sketch from the Eat Sleep Stamp blog. I paired it up with the inspiration challenge from the new blog Inkspirations. I used the colors from the inspiration challenge which were Pacific Point, Tempting Turquoise, and YoYo Yellow. Sometimes when I am not sure how to add some “pop” to a card I will use the colors from the card and sponge a rainbow effect around the edge. I like this look especially when your card is only a few layers. Here is the sketch, inspiration, and my creation.

Hey Robbie,
