Stamping Off
Hi all! For today's card I used the stamping off technique in order to get varying shades of color. The colors I am using were set by the Creative Colours Challenge #27. The three colors were Magenta Madness, Night of Navy and Shaded Spruce.
The flower pot was second generation Night of navy and Shaded Spruce was second generation seed packet. I tried stamping off Magenta Madness for each of the flowers but the color was too soft for the brightness of the other colors.

Happy Hedgehog Reverse Stamping
Hello all! Today's card was a bit of an oops. I had the card all planned out and everything was stamped, cut and punched. When I started to do the coloring I realized my hedgehog was facing the wrong way. My first thought was to just use the other hedgehog in the stamp set and fussy cut it out. But if I did that I would miss one of the requirements for the two challenges I wanted to use for this card. So I pulled out my silicone mat and reversed stamped the image. Both challenges were tic tac toe boards, Tic Tac Toe Challenge #150 and Paper Craft Crew Challenge #460. The elements for the Paper Craft Crew Challenge were animal, thanks and punches. The Tic Tac Toe Challenge elements were pastel colors, DSP and punches or dies.
