Tropical Chic Flamingo ~ HSS294, JUGS449, JAI417

Hello stampers!  We are back with a brand new challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments!  It's an Inspiration Challenge this time and the chosen theme is flamingos!  I just love this!  I was inspired by the flamingos, of course, and the colors in the bottom right picture.  

I'm also playing along with Just Us Girls #449--Watercolor Background and Just Add Ink #417--Just Add "T".  My "T" is tropical!

I combined a couple of stamp sets here--the always awesome Fabulous Flamingo and the wonderful new Tropical Chic.  I'm loving the variety of leaves and the matching dies that this set coordinates with!  I think the card possibilities could be endless using this set!

I chose to only use the solid image from Fabulous Flamingo as I wanted to keep my flamingo "silhouetted".  

I did a watercolor wash on the background and did some spattering as well.  

a few sequins and some old Coastal Cabana ribbon (which I still have from when Coastal Cabana was an In-Color) finished off my card.

Here's a list of my supplies....

Stamps: Fabulous Flamingo, Tropical Chic

Ink: Flirty Flamingo, Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, Pool Party

Paper: Coastal Cabana, Flirty Flamingo, Whisper White, Watercolor

Accessories: Petal Burst EF, Tropical Thinlits dies, Iridescent sequins, Coastal Cabana ruffled ribbon

Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

Thanks Fabulous Flamingo ~ CCMC466, SIP107

Hey everybody!  Create with Connie and Mary sketch time again!  Join us for cool sketch challenge #466 by uploading your creation to the CCMC facebook page.  

I have really enjoyed playing with the Fabulous Flamingo ever since it arrived in my new goodies box!  The first moment I saw this image I knew it would be at the top of my wish list.  I don't know what it is, I just like it a lot!  

I used the fun Tic-Tac-Toe challenge #107 over at Stamp Ink Paper to help me along in my creation.  I used across the middle - Green, Embossed, Pink.

I've been a huge fan of the Dynamic Textured Impression Folders since the first Cable Knit one came out last year.  When they introduced a couple new ones in the new catalog I made sure I got each one!  The super embossed ruffles on this one look awesome with this stamp set, don't you think?

Also, the iridescent sequins could not be a better match!  They were another new product I was thrilled about!
