Keesh's Challenge - 13.

This is my submission for Keesh's Challenge.

Punches Three Hostess Stamp Set (Stampin' Up 115732) gives us some wonderful stamps to mix and match and use in conjunction with the large oval and square scallop punches. Here I've placed 'True Blue Friends' as though a title; to reflect the three scalloped squares off set to the right.

The Playful Petals Stamp Set (Stampin' Up 116332) is an inspiration to me. Here all the stamps within the set have been utilised. On white gloss cardstock different flowers have been layered in Bayou Blue and Pacific Point Inks to create interest. Bold flowers featured are water coloured using a blender pen. Selected petals have been cut away using a scalpel so the backing is revealed adding additional depth and rich clean colour.

Give the challenge a go....It's a hoot!
