Clear Dollar Weekend Color Challenge #24





This weekend's clear dollar color challenge over at paper craft planet hosted by Lisa features some very fun summer colors!! This week, the colors are (su) chocolate chip, real red, taken with teal, lovely lilac (optional) and white for the neutral. I have not used this stamp set, Walk in the Park the Clear Dollar SOM for May, as much as I would like so I was determined to ink it up today, and here is the result! I stamped the tree 5 times and then stamped the flower/leaves in the three colors onto a whisper white large curvy rectangle nestie and mounted that on a chocolate chip curvy rectangle nestie one size larger. I stamped and cut out the tiny butterfly from the beautiful butterflies stamp set from Clear Dollar and aheared them to the trees with a dimentional. The ribbon I used for a background is also from clear dollar stamps. The sentiment is once again, from clear dollar, but I do not remember what it is called, I found it in the clearance bin. Finally, my finishing touch is the paperbloom butterfly! These little guys are SO CUTE!! These butterflies can be found at the very talented Leah's Esty Shop along with a variety of other great blooms and embellishments! Well that should about cover it! This challenge was alot of fun! Thanks for stopping by and for sharing your thoughts! It really means alot to me to hear what you gals have to say :0)

Christi, I just love what you came up with. Oh my, girl. This is so Fabulous. I love the overlapping trees and the popped up butterflies. They look so nice on the nestled nesties. Leah's butterfly is the perfect touch. Thank you for playing.
