You Are the Stamping Queen ~ JUN20VSNF ~ Fri June 26 @ 9 pm EST
Challenge Title: You are the Stamping Queen! Hostess: Kim (aka berlycece) Keyword: JUN20VSNF Date: Friday June 26, 2020 9 pm ET
A couple of years ago, I was searching YouTube for some upbeat music to help me get motivated to make a bunch of cards. Something made me think of ABBA's music, and I ended up binging on their original music videos! I didn't get much done that day, but now I often turn on their tunes if I need a boost of energy.
The group is known for great harmonies, and their videos often feature crazy disco-era costumes. You get away with a lot when you are a global success!
My challenge for you is 2-fold.
1. The 2 female lead singers look very different, but they compliment each other beautifully. Feature TWO SEPARATE IMAGES that coordinate well together.
2. Add lots of embellishments! No VSN police, so what "lots" means can vary. Maybe an extra large bow, lots of sequins, glitter...whatever you want!
Thanks to my sample makers! You are all stamping queens!
The title of my challenge is inspired by the song Dancing Queen, BUT the challenge itself is not about that song. It's all about the overall sound of ABBA. My favorite ABBA song is "Take a Chance on Me"

This was a super fun challenge to start Day 2 of VSN (I am an "early to bed, early to rise" gal, so didn't get to the last two Friday challenges until this morning).
Here's mine Snow Pals, I had the image almost completely done so all I had to do was find some DP to go with it and stick it all together and then add the puff paint.
Had a wonderful time yesterday and the Zoom chat was so good, so glad I met everyone. I'm feeling very tired today and having trouble getting going.
It is 9 am here so I'm off to have a coffee with Rick my DH then a shower and back into it.
