Dynamic Duos and OLW101

Another week end for playing!  LOVE IT!  I came across The Dynamic Duos Challenge.  This is such a fun challenge and right up my alley - they supply 2 colors and you pick the 3rd.  This week is River Rock and Black.  I added in a blue.  I thought about red, obviously white, but I really like the blue with these colors.  It's different.  They had a dessert of brads -- I hope that was optional since I didn't use any :)

I used my fun Hero Arts set Just Saying Hi, (with svg), along with Pretty Patterns from GKD.  I just adore this set and I really want a retro phone like this! lol.


My favorite challenge One Layer Wednesday is hosted by Heather Telford, use blue. [ On a side note, check out Heather's blog. I AM TELLING YOU this girl has sponging down to an amazing science. Her cards take my breath AWAY! Stunning work!!  Really, check out her work~]  Meanwhile, here is my one layer card using blue.


[One of my lights went out on my photo box -- Sorry for the crappy photo.]    I used Gina K Designs Hello Sunshine Stamp TV Kit.  I am really liking white on kraft and thought I would try it.  Yep, it works! 

Thanks for stopping by~

Vicki, Beautiful emboss resist! Why didn't I think of that for the "blue" challenge. Love it...

Hey, your sponging ain't so bad either, Vicki! I like the white embossing on kraft, as well. It just looks so appealing. You picked a good stamp to do it with, too. Beautiful CASness!

Vicki, your blue one layer card is GORGEOUS!! I love the white embossed blooms...and the blue just makes them pop!

I've been using a homemade light box for several years. What kind of light box do you use? Maybe I need to update mine!

Fantastic job Vicki, love the chevron. The one colour is River Rock and then black. You are welcome to use neutrals. Sorry that the rules did not make sense,I will try to think of better wording! Your card is stunning! Thanks for playing Dynamic Duos.
