Onstage Team Swaps

Cards

Last weekend I attended our Stampin’ Up!® Local OnStage event in Melbourne and the team I am part of decided to do a team swap.

I decided to create a card using my current favourite set, Tropical Chic, and the co-ordinating products.

Here is the first sample I made.

I liked it but thought it needed a little more.

This is my second sample and what ended up being my team swap card.

I think the extra strip of paper worked well.

I really like these colours together which are taken from the Tropical Escape DSP.

I also love the extra touch the Metallic Sequin Assortment gives. These have a pink tinge to them which fit perfectly with my colour combination.

Do you have a preference?

The new Stampin’ Up!® Annual Catalogue has lots of gorgeous stamp sets to choose from and one of my favourites as soon as I saw it was the ‘Tropical Chic’ stamp set, coordinating papers & dies. I finally made some time to play with these gorgeous goodies and have created some cards to share with you all.

I noticed Just Add Ink had a sketch challenge this week and I thought Tropical Chic would fit perfectly.

Here’s what I came up with,

and here’s the Sketch provided.

I’ve also finished off the inside of the card with some of the designer series paper I’ve used on the front.

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Tropical Chic
Papers: Tropical Escape
Card: Whisper White, Blushing Bride
Ink: Shaded Spruce, Granny Apple Green, Blushing Bride, Memento Tuxedo Black
Punches & Dies: Tropical Thinlits
