Fresh Cuts Block


Ever have one of those days when you just do not have the time to stamp, but the design will not leave you alone? That is how it was today. My first problem was I started my day by cleaning off my desk and then I thought I could read the color challenge just to see....well then I had an idea that just would not leave me alone so I just had to make it. Now I have to start again by cleaning off my desk. I stamped the main image in both colors trimmed them exactly the same (down to 3 3/16" x 3"). I then put them together and cut the blocks in 1 1/16" x 1". I mounted on the Taken with Teal and trimmed. I had a problem getting a good picture. I get the best light on my deck, of course there had to be a slight wind today. With the Rhinestone brads the balance was a little off. The card fell and the deck is two levels off the ground. The mosquitoes are horrible with all of the rain so I did not look forward to going down and getting it. Oh well...the price we pay for a card!

Stamps: Fresh Cuts
Paper: Wild Wasabi, Taken with Teal, Whisper White
Ink: Taken with Teal, Wild Wasabi
Accessories: Circle Ice Rhinestone Brads
