I try to participate in at least one challenge a week. It helps me grow as a stamper by forcing me to try new colors, layouts and techniques. And it gives me a chance to put some ink to new stamps.
Here's my entry for the Compose a Card challenge. It's my first time for this one but it won't be the last. Lots of fun! Sorry the black in my photo looks a bit funky. It's much better in real life - I guess I need to work on my photography skills!
Supplies:
Stamps: PTI Turning a New Leaf, Mega Mixed Messages
Cardstock: Ripe Avocado, True Black, White
Patterned Paper: Black & White Basics
Punches: Stampin' Up oval and oval scallop
Other: Ripe Avocado Saddle Stitch ribbon, vintage buttons, Copic marker
