I've been wanting to play along with the Dynamic Duos challenge all week but kept waiting on my new designer paper! Once it got here the week got busy and of course I put it off. This morning I finally realized the deadline was today so I HAD to do it or miss out on the fun! I decided to use my new stamp set (again!) and a new embossing folder, the Chevron pattern! I think it's fun to emboss designer paper; it just adds some fun to it and fun is what Happy Hour is all about, right?!
Aren't those colors great together? I'm normally terrified of color challenges but I'm trying to embrace them and gain some confidence in mixing them up. Island Indigo is one of my favorite colors for sure and red...well, who doesn't love red?!
Stamps: Happy Hour
Ink: Real Red, Island Indigo
Paper: Real Red, Island Indigo, Whisper White, 2011-2013 In Colors DSP stack
Tools/Accessories: Big Shot, Chevron embossing folder, Scallop Circle punch, Circle punch, Brights Glimmer Brads
I love the embossed DSP and the pretty colors!
