Step It Up Sunday – Striking Mambo II

Good Morning Everyone!

Well the yard sale was somewhat successful.  I sold some things but I still have a lot left.  I am going to make a list by price and sell them as I really want to get them out of my house.  A lot of my stuff is several years old.  I will list them in several places to see if I can sell it.

Today is Step It Up Sunday.  Yesterday I shared with you a simple card.  I am taking that card and stepping it up today.  I again used the Weekend Sketch Challenge at Stampin’ Gals Gone Wild a Facebook group I am in.

Stampin' Gals Gone Wild Weekend Challenge - May 15, 2015 - join us at www.SimplySimpleStamping.com

I also used the Colour Me… Striking challenge.

      

I thought about what I could do to step up my card.  I knew I could use a white card base and add a melon layer.  I wanted to do some other things so I decided to emboss the melon layer as well as the pear strip.  I knew I could use the large polka dot embossing folder for the melon layer.  I then wanted to add embossing to pear strip so I pulled out my chevron embossing folder for it.  When it was finished it needed some bling to me so I added some sequins.  Here is my stepped up version.
