Good Morning and it’s 10-minute challenge day with the Stamp-a-holics!
This is the inspiration for today’s project.
When I first saw this picture, the Tempting Turquoise pillow just sat up and said “Hello”. So, I matched it up with Old Olive, Whisper White and one of the returning colours, Pink Pirouette! A little Regal Rose for the flowers and we have a bright, tropical theme for this card.
I blew the time big time, though. Sheesh! I’ll blame it on the cutting, as I used Mary Jo’s Monday Lunchtime sketch for further inspiration. I also wanted to take part in the Swirls and Pearls challenge over at Late Night Stampers, so the time just flew by!
I like the way this card turned out though, so it’s a keeper!
Recipe:
Stamp Sets: Tropical Party, Elements of Style
Cardstock: Tempting Turquoise, Old Olive, Pink Pirouette, Whisper White, Island Oasis Designer Series Paper
Ink: Regal Rose Classic, Old Olive Classic
Accessories: 1/4″ Tempting Turquoise Grosgrain Ribbon, 5/8″ Whisper White Satin Ribbon, 1/2 Pearls from the Pretties Kit
Now it’s your turn. Take the challenge and head on over to Carole’Anne’s blog to upload your creation. We’d love to see what you come up with.
We’re spending time at the drag race track this weekend, so have a good one and we’ll talk again on Monday.
Cheers;
Love it! Great Job. I did a scrapbook page instead of a card. This was a tough one. TFS Nancy
It was well worth the extra time! Great card. Thanks so much for playing along with my challenges. Sketch and LNS! Love your card.
Great card, Cynthia, and great application of the challenges. Your timer looks like some sort of space alien! Are you going to name it?

oh, but your card is so beautiful, so it was worth blowing the time out right? I love M.J.’s sketch too, I’ll have to give that one a go also.
Beautiful card my dear, as always, you rocked the challenge.
