Another Cherry Card

I made this card for the Potluck Friday challenge on Stamptv. It was to create something with food on it. After seeing the cards made with Gina K.'s new green color last night, I decided to pull out my Kiwi Kiss. (I guess I don't have to hoard it any more! ;) )
I added crystal effects to the cherries. I know I had another cherry card just the other day, but this one has a different feel, even though I used the red check dp with it.

Stamps: Summer Harvest by Gina K.

Cardstock: Kiwi Kiss, Basic Black Real Red, white

The ribbon is olive ribbon from Pink Hedgehog
Black brads & rectangle nestabilites, colored in with copics

SCS Color Challenge Card

I had a hard time with this color challenge: mellow moss, apricot appeal & pixie pink. I didn't have Pixie Pink, so I used Papertrey's Hibiscus Burst. I worked & worked on this card, trying to get something to work. I finally decided to ditch the other colors of cardstock & only go with the pink. The rhinestones match uch better in real life! This probably isn't a color combo that I will be using much! :D

Stamps: Whipper Snapper Blossoms & Butterflies

Ink: Memento Black

C/S: white, Hibiscus Burst

Accessories: Hibiscus Burst ribbon, oval nestabilities, pink rhinestones, Cuttlebug embossing folder, copics

Whipper Snapper Swirly Buds

I got this stamp... some time ago... and it hadn't seen any ink. I decided to actually use it, shocking isn't it?! ;) The Dare to Get Dirty challenge was to use something clear on your card. My stash of "clear" items are pretty limited, in fact... I had 1 choice, dew drops. I decided to put them on the ribbon so they would show up better. (they do in real life!)

Stamps: Whipper Snapper Swirly Buds, sentiment is from Papertrey's Birthday Basics
Cardstock: white, Papertrey Berry Sorbet, Berry Sorbet dp
Ink: Memento Black
Accessories: dew drops, circle nestabilities, Berry Sorbet ribbon, Cuttlebug Swiss Dots, copics.

Another Dare to Get Dirty Challenge Card

I am enjoying the Dare to Get Dirty Challenges on SCS. I haven't completed as many as I would like or had even planned to have finished.

This card, the challenge was to make a black & white card with a splash of red. When I started the card, I was going in a different direction. The Happy Birthday was a script & more formal for the other option, so I changed in mid-strid! I don't know if you can tell that I used the Scor-Pal.

Stamps: Baroque Motifs, sentiment by Papertrey
Cardstock: white, Real Red, Basic Black
Black ribbon, Cuttlebug Swiss Dots, Red Rhinestone, Scor-Pal
