This is for Peggy's colour challenge.....I know, who'd have thunk I could do a colour challenge!
Thanks to the magic of MISTI I was able to stamp this jeans pocket a gazillion times, alternating between Memento ink and distress ink. A gazillion times is a bit over the top, but seriously I inked and stamped this image about 15 times to build up the colours and get a good impression.
10 seconds in the microwave was all that was needed to remove this very unforgiving stamp from the wooden block YAY!!!!
Thank you for looking.

Gorgeously wonderful card Susie! I am so happy you persevered with that stamp; so very worth it! I love the ribbon and flowers combined with the denim image. Brings me back to the day when the flowers wouldn't have looked half bad hanging out of my pocket! :-) ...going way, way, back!

It was worth all gazillion times, Susie! I had to look twice to be sure the jeans weren't actual fabric. Love the creative way you used today's colors!

I was sure that was fabric! Never saw jeans done so well before! Love how you strung the belt on this! This is amazing, Susie! Fun to see where your creativity will take you next time!

Oh, my, this is so creative, Susie!! I love the way this fills the whole card, the pretty, delicate flowers, and then the loosely laid "belt" is the frosting on the cake - love it!!

Welcome back, Ms. Susie. Your presence has certainly been missed here at SCS. Your card is darling despite the fact you had to use your MISTI a gazillion times. Love those pocket flowers, too.
