DeNami Addict Challenge #2 - Third entry.

Here again is the color combo to be used for DeNami Addict Challenge #2.

(while you don't have to use these exact colors, we ask that you keep them as close as possible)



So, still on the subject of the DeNami Addict Challenge, I intended to do a third card.  I had an idea and had made an embellishment that I wanted to put on the card.  The full idea of what I wanted the card to look like had not fully developed.  I had also been wanting to make a card based on a design of a card we made at a local stamping store's make-it-take-it.  The card was a birdhouse card and I finally got everything I needed to be able to make it.  Mine is not identical, but then when does anyone make something identical to the inspiration, right?  I wanted the front of the birdhouse to be paper (the original was stamped with a woodgrain look.)  I looked through my stash of paper and picked one I thought would look pretty.  As I looked at it, it occurred to me that this paper was the same colors needed for the challenge!  I completed my card and decided to use this one for my third entry since the other idea never developed.  I can always use my already created embellishment on another card another time!  I'm just happy to get more stamping experience and pushing myself to get better.  So, here is my third card.





Supplies used:

Amethyst paper - unknown maker
Floral print paper - Paper Pizazz
Ribbon - Ribbon Trends, Polka Dot Purple
Stamps - sentiment: TPC Studio, Greetings; bird: TPC Studio, Whimsical Birds

Thanks for coming by to look at my card.  Comments are welcome.  'Til later...
