Let's Celebrate DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #100: Seasonally Scattered

It's time for another DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge.  In fact, it's our 100th challenge - woohoo!  And this week we're celebrating with a Sketch Challenge and blog candy - woohoo, again!  (Note: for the blog candy give-a-way, be sure to scroll to the bottom for details)

I decided to use the new stamp set, Seasonally Scattered.  It comes with 3 "graphic" greetings - Merry, Thanks and Love.  Very versatile.  For the greeting on the banner, I used Christmas from Ornamental Pine stamp set (just ommitted the word "wishes")

Dawn's Stamping Tip

If you look closely, you can see that the main image is two-toned.  Here's what I did to achieve that look:

• Ink entire "merry" mage with Soft Sky ink
• Before stamping, use a sponge dauber to add Lost Lagoon ink, keeping it just over the word area
• Stamp onto cardstock
• Enjoy!

I'm lovin' this card and think it will be one of my Stamping Club projects at my next months classes.  If you're in the club (local and TO GO) - you'll get to enjoy making this project!

Enjoy ~Dawn O
