Outlines DT and a Totally Stampalicious Challenge


Ahhhh Monday............here it is again. The weekends seem to roll by so fast and before you even have time to enjoy it, it's time to get back into the Work and School routine!!! Oh well, I guess we can look at it as only four more sleeps until Friday! lol...........I'm sharing two challenge cards with you today. The first one is the Outlines DT Challenge, which is to create a square themed card. For my card, I used Candles Square Large. I love that you can either colour the entire image, or as I've done, stamp it multi times onto different coloured paper to make interesting layers.



I coloured the candles with Copic Markers and added a wee bit of glitter to the flames for some zippy pizzaz! I then used the Viva Decor Pearl Pen (silver), available HERE at the Outlines Store. The card base is a precut embossed card from DCWV. Make sure to follow the links on my sidebar to see what the uber talented design team has created. Bev is taking this week off as she's a little under the weather.........if you wish, it would be lovely if you could send some feel better soon prayers her way!



My second card is brought to you by TOTALLY STAMPALICIOUS! They have a fun challenge each Monday and today it's a Pink and Red theme. I used Stampalicious Scarlette as my Main Lady today. The neat thing about this fun stamp set is that she's not available for purchase, but can be yours with every $50.00 purchase. I also coloured her up with Copic Markers and used a little Pretty in Pink Craft ink to sponge the edge of the Nestabilities Die. If you want to see all the details of the challenge and how you can win a prize by playing along, head on over to the TS Blog and of course the Stampalicious DT have the yummiest creations to share with you........just follow the links!

Happy Stamping!
