Curtain Call - Act #37...


Hey everyone!

I hope you are enjoying your summer holidays as much as I am. . . the weather has been VERY cooperative lately and we have been able to get a fair bit of work done in the yard that has been, shall I say, neglected the last few weeks.

Between working and playing outside, running errands to town, looking for a new vehicle, my crafting time has been little to none BUT I managed to sit down on Friday night and get my card for Stacey's Curtain Call - Act 37 and what a great color combo she gave us this week:


Don't the cupcakes look YUMMY?  I always love the sketches over at Our Creative Corner Sketch Challenge and this week's sketch is no exception:


I quickly stopped in at the Paper Makeup Stamps challenge to see hat they had for us this week and discovered a fun one: they want us to make a window card, and I must admit, I have NEVER done one of these so I thought I'd give it a try.

I still had some turquoise and melon mambo out in my desk from my STR card last week so it wasn't hard to put this beauty together - actually it *was* kind of hard but only because I forgot the you can't cut through lots of layers with Nestabilities so I was almost done and then had to start from scratch in order to cut one layer at a time!  Oh well, live and learn, right? 



Recipe - Stamps: Proverbs 3:5 Plain Jane (Verve)  Ink: Chocolate Chip  Paper: Whisper White, Tempting Turquoise, Barely Banana, Melon Mambo, SU DSP, unknown DSP  Accessories: Velvet flowers, buttons, twine, Nestabilities, pop-up glue dots

Here are a couple more views of the card:


And the inside:


I used my new Embossed Curve border punch (EK Success) for the inside sentiment layer but made a bit of a boo-boo with one of the scallops so I stuck on a couple of adhesive pearls to cover it up.  :)


 ...then play along with us and post your Curtain Call Color Challenge: Act 37 creation using Mr. Linky at Stacey's Stamping Stage.


Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you have fun with these colors - I know I did!  See you tomorrow!
