Take the Challenge with Clear & Simple Stamps

It’s time for another Take the Challenge with Clear & Simple Stamps. For this month’s challenge, Maria gave us a fun sketch to try out. Since vacation and traveling have been on my mind, I pulled out my Jet Setter Darling set for the challenge.

I colored the Darling to coordinate with the sparkly designer paper panel I layered on the Bermuda Bay card base. I’ve seen a lot of jewel tones as I’ve shopped for clothes recently, so the Darling’s dress and bag should fit right in. I found some coordinating wide green grosgrain ribbon in my stash and wrapped that around the patterned paper panel before attaching the colored image.

I layered a pair of coordinating Prima flowers at the corner of the patterned paper panel. There’s a green dome embellishment at the center to keep it all together. The final element was the sentiment. I stamped it along the bottom of the card in coordinating ink.
