Splatter Thanks

This card design might look a bit familiar to you, and yes have seen it before. My Upliner Sherry gave me card like this one and I have changed it up to you use what I have. The reason I have reposted this design again was because I wanted to try out the technique of stamping right on the DSP to give it a bit more flare! Fun is what it was!

As I have said in the past I have trouble working with the DSP because 1) I find it hard to cut up the pretty paper and 2) some of them are so busy I don't know what to do with them. This paper today is from the Flashback DSP and I really loved the settle look of the paper. I took out my Gorgeous Grunge stamp set and stamped some splatters with Lost Lagoon (love this colour!) and Tangelo Twist a colour that I have never worked with before - out of my comfort zone but I think it turned out okay!A couple flags a piece of ribbon and this card was done - change up the sentiment and this would work very well for a masculine birthday card don't you think?

Dee-Litefully Yours,

Choose Happiness 1

 
Over the next three days I am going to be sharing with cards that were given to me by my Upliner Sherry. She makes such gorgeous cards and it such an inspiration to me!
 
I love how she added some stamped images to the DSP - why have I never thought that of?? Lost Lagoon goes so well with black and white too doesn't it??
 
Dee-Lited you stopped by today

Quick Trick

Some of the stamp set we all have can be kinda tricky to get back into the boxes. Come on we have all been there! My new favourite, Work of Art, is like a puzzle trying to get back in its case. I spent almost 10 minutes trying to fit them all back in again, longer than it took me to make the card! As Don was watching me struggle (yes he watched and didn't offer to help ;-) and I finally got it he said "you should take a picture now of it all in there, print it and tape it onto the inside of the box" Brilliant!! I forgave him for laughing at me! So that is my tip for you today, take a pic of the stamps in the box and keep it in the case!

For all of you who signed up for my May Stampers Club - here it is all done for you! Lol!
