I FINALLY got around to doing some stamping today, but not nearly as much as I intended! And now I have to return to the working-world tomorrow and Thursday! :( Back to the grind for a few days!
I used Jen's Sketch for You to Try for this card, and a new Rubbernecker stamp that I picked up at Adventures in Stamping back in April. I fell in love with this stamp when I saw Sherry Cheever use it here, and couldn't resist buying it at their booth.
The image is stamped on watercolor paper, and then I used my aquapainter and ink from the lids of my Stampin' Up inkpads to color. Quick and easy!
Thanks for stopping by! Stay tuned for the very first COLOR THROWDOWN challenge tomorrow! I hope you'll find time to participate!
Stamps: Daisies (Rubbernecker), sentiment (Be Authentic from The Angle Company); Cardstock: Mellow Moss, Pretty in Pink, Regal Rose (Stampin' Up!), watercolor paper (Hollo's); Inks: Jet Black Staz-On (Tsukineko), Pretty in Pink, Regal Rose, Rose Red, Mellow Moss, Always Artichoke, Marigold Morning (Stampin' Up!); Accessories: Birds & Swirls Cuttlebug embossing folder (ProvoCraft), die cut tag (Spellbinders), ribbon (May Arts).
Tammy this is awesome! Love all the different textures you got going on. I will be more than happy to add you to my blogroll - I actually thought I already had. My BAD!

This is such a great card!! And it makes me want to get a die cut machine even more now!! I love the CB embossing folders..but the tag you used is great!! I thought it was a metal tag. Which DC machine do you use? I just dont know which one to buy...any suggestions? Thanks so much for sharing this beautiful card!
