Stamp Ink Paper 142 Color Challenge

Happy Tuesday! Stamp Ink Paper is back this week with a bright and fun color challenge for you! 

Did you survive the weekend?? We had a long weekend down in the southeastern corner of Colorado filled with movies, a rowdy game of Clue and a great time at Parrot Cove indoor waterpark in Garden City (that is in Kansas). Kids didn't want to go back to school after being off for a week, personally I am kind of ready for them to be home again.

I love our colors for this weeks challenge. You can really do a lot with Gray, Aqua and Lime. Let me show you my card!

My card started with a card base from the Sale A Bration Tutti Frutti Card Bases and Envelopes. I matted a piece of Basic Gray in a not so straight manner. I wasn't sure exactly at this point what my plan was, but after digging through my DSP stash I found this fun star patterned piece from the Bubble and Fizz also in the Sale A Bration catalog. This was adhered the opposite direction of the Basic Gray. I took my snips after stamping the sentiment from Birthday Wit in Smoky Slate and Lemon Lime Twist and cut the words out. Using the Star from the Mini Treat Bag Framelits, I cut three Magic Myths Glimmer Paper Stars and adhered them with Glue Dots on the card. Next I adhered the sentiment with the Mini Dimensionals. To finish this card off I added just a few of the Self Adhesive Sequins.

Thank You soooo much for stopping by today! I can't wait to see what you create with these fun colors!

Sale A Bration Kick Off Blog Hop

I am so excited that Sale-A-Bration starts tomorrow!! Welcome to the 2018 Sale-A-Bration Kick Off Blog Hop!! I want to a say a special Thank You to Janet Wakeland for giving Stampin' Up! Demonstrators Globally an opportunity to debut these amazing goodies!
For those of you who are new to my blog, I am Andrea Tracy-Tucker! I have been a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator for going on 5 Years! I live on the eastern edge of Colorado in small little town of 2000 people! I'm am happily married and have 3 amazing kiddos, 2 Horses and a dog! The crazy thing about this, I grew up in San Diego! So the weather is a drastic contrast to what I grew up with! That is enough of me! Let me show you these cute Sale-A-Bration creations!

So let me tell you something... I couldn't decide what to use!!! I started with a set of cards made with the Celebrate You thinlits. Then I had a moment where I panicked over not doing something "cool" enough... I got up this morning, did not start over but decided to make a coordinating something!

This fun card starts with a bright base of Pumpkin Pie card stock with a matte of Lemon Lime Twist. I couldn't wait to use the candle paper from Picture Perfect Party DSP. The Bermuda Bay matted stripe is also from this collection. The Celebrate is cut using the Celebrate You Thinlits, I cut it twice out of Basic Black card stock. I then cut it out of the Turquoise Glimmer Paper from the Myths & Magic Glimmer Paper pack! This is a really great pack with a light green and iridescent as well! This card wasn't complete until I added the fussy cut Panda from Party Pandas! 

This was the something I created this morning to coordinate with my card! Cute and oh so easy! I used our Mini Treat Bag Framelits to create this cutie! The Panda came back! Who doesn't love a panda? The Bubble & Fizz DSP works well with Picture Perfect Party DSP in my card. I made a 2 inch band and created a Stitched Circle with an Iridescent Glimmer paper circle for the panda to hang out on! The Lemon Lime Twist sentiment was created using the torn looking die from the Mini Treat Bag Dies. I added a strip of Bermuda Bay Stars and Calypso Coral dots for some fun layers!
