Boy, I sure do like when the challenges come out early. Thanks so much for posting so early. It has helped me out a lot lately, so I can get the proper rest with my cold. Now, my whole family has my cold...YUCK!
Here is my story:
I just admire Judy's gallery for the Featured Stamper tonight. She is known by Stampingqueenjar. We were to change at least 3 things on our card from the card we case. I also went way back to one of her beginning cards. I actually had my supplies out to make my card, so this worked perfect. Here is Judy's card I cased: CC111 Petals by StampingQueenJAR at Splitcoaststampers
I started out by stamping the leaves from Embrace Life on the cranberry c/s as the base card with cranberry crisp ink. I've always wanted to try the thumping technique so this was perfect opportunity for it right here. I used a cameo coral colored marker on the Upsy Daisy stamp and went over the tips of the flowers with the cranberry crisp marker. Huffed on the stamp to stamp the image onto white c/s. I sponged lightly around the edges and mounted it to celery c/s. I used the piercing tool as well along the edges too. Once mounted, I used the 2-way glue on the tips of the flowers and added glitter with a q-tip. Mounted the whole image to the base of the card. Stamped the sentiment with black ink. I added the ribbon. I used the MS butterfly punch to attach to the card and added stickles to their bodies. This was really a quick card to do and fun to do. Thanks again for posting early. Have a wonderful Sunday. TFL!

Things I changed:
different stamp set
used a straight edge for all layers
used the thumping technique
I'm sorry, I was trying to get a better picture so I uploaded with another picture. Hoping you'd get to see the glitter and the thumping technique. I'm also sorry for the blurry picture, darn camera.
