Do You Stack Up??? Guest Designer Card

Hello my crafty friends!! Today I have the extreme honor of being featured as a Guest Designer at the Do You Stack Up Challenge Blog, yippee!!  This weeks challenge # 13 is to use Clear, Light Pink and Mauve on your project.  The funny thing is that this became an extreme challenge for me because I had no mauve paper nor did anyone else in town it seemed. Long story short after finding two scrapbook stores had gone out of business and four craft stores later I finally found some... challenge accomplished.  This cute stamp is from  Lexi's Creations and is called Ollie Rainbow Bubbles.

To pull in some more mauve I created a stencil and sponged  the sky with Versa Magic Perfect Plumeria Chalk Ink.  The dot  paper is Tim Holtz Vintage Shabby and the stripe Is My Mind's Eye Carefree Precious Baby Blanket.  I popped up my blinged out "bubbles" so that you can see the clear element.  I used a feathering technique on the rainbow using the following markers.
 Copics
Rainbow-YR20, Y23, B91, R81, V91Grass- G20, G82, G40 Shadow-C1 

Now it is your turn to join in the challenge so head on over to the DYSU blog and get some wonderful inspiration from the design team.  Thank you for stopping by and if you are new I would love it if you would leave a comment so I can visit you as well.

Signature Final
