\"\"<\/a>This weeks challenge is to use the colors you see above to make a card in 10 minutes.\u00a0 As I looked at the colors my thoughts where Chocolate Chip, Whisper White, Pretty in Pink – no problem!\u00a0 But Soft Suede??\u00a0 I have hardly used that color and I just don’t see using it with Chocolate Chip.\u00a0 It took me a little while to decide how I was going to incorporate that color.<\/p>\n

Okay, I’ve got 10 minutes – let’s see how I do!\u00a0 I grabbed up my cardstock and ran to the paper cutter.\u00a0 Back at my desk again I grabbed the rose stamp from the Elements of Style stamp set.<\/p>\n

First I stamped in Whisper White craft onto the Soft Suede cardstock and then I cleaned the stamp and stamped it again, just slightly off from the first stamp, in Chocolate Chip craft ink.\u00a0 See how it sort of pops off the paper when you do that?\u00a0 So very neat!<\/p>\n

After hitting the image really fast with the Heat Tool (to dry it), I ran into the laundry room to spritz the cardstock with the Log Cabin Smooch Spritz. Unfortunately the spritz sort of dulled the effect of the stamping.\u00a0 I wish I’d thought to spritz the cardstock before stamping but . . . no time to change it!<\/p>\n

I added some Pretty in Pink satin ribbon and held the bow together with one of our neutral brads.\u00a0 From there I did a little punching and added some pretties until I heard my youngest start to cry upstairs.\u00a0 It was time to be done whether I was done or not!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Done.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Wow!\u00a0 I’m done early!\u00a0 (Well, I probably would have used more of the time up if my son hadn’t been crying but . . . .<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Well, what do you think?\u00a0 I added a pearl from the Pretties Kit onto the neutral brad and some more up in the corner.\u00a0 Unfortunately the pearls are a bit crooked.\u00a0 I was having some trouble with my 2-way glue pen when I adhered them on causing a little distraction on my part.\u00a0 (Later when I had time to look at the glue pen I found that it was coming unscrewed and that’s why it was pouring glue all over the place.)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Here’s a close up view of the card.\u00a0 It’s not perfect but I’m pretty pleased with it considering the amount of time I had.\u00a0 I hope you’ll take a moment to leave a comment if you like the card!\u00a0 Thanks for stopping by!<\/p>\n

Oh, I did post the handmade motorcycle card<\/a> I promised, this is the second post of the day so be sure to follow the link or page down for the motorcycle card too!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
