I'm still playing along with the Dare to Get Dirty challenges, and I paired one of them with the Fab Friday challenge #118 colours and some brand-new items from the 2017 Holidays Catalogue. I used expedited shipping for my preorder, which I hadn't done in a long time, but with me working on the DTGD challenges and my upcoming holidays, I decided I would have more time to play with my new items if I got them in faster.
So you are getting a little glimpse at the adorable Hug in a Mug stamp set, the Merry Music Specialty Designer Series Paper and the faboo new 7/8" Striped ribbon. I created my own funky background using a stencil, VersaMark and clear embossing powder, then the emboss resist technique before pulling out my lovely Distress Oxide inks (Worn Lipstick + Abandoned Coral + Twisted Citron to match the colour combo).
I make more French cards than English ones, but there was something about the font of the sentiments in the set that was very appealing and I thought it would look lovely embossed in black powder against the Lemon Lime Twist cardstock. I used the Stitched Shapes Framelits to die-cut it out, and I added a In Color enamel heart in Flirty Flamingo to go with the theme.
