It's time for another Dirty Dozen challenge, brought to us by Jami!
Give a Shout Out!!!
Challenge Focus: Stamps Designed by Fellow Dirty Girls -OR- alternate option - use any fellow Dirty Girl's gallery creation as an inspiration to semi-CASE something of your own.
Required Element: Spring Color Combo - whatever feels like Spring to you!
Restricted Element: NO CuttleBug/Big Shot/Wizard or similar diecut/embossing machines.
I couldn't wait to get my hands on this sweet set by our own SweetMissDaisy, Anna Wight, for Whipper Snapper Designs!! I've admired her hand-drawn images for so long and was delighted to be able to actually duplicate them with a stamp...woohoo!
I loved pairing them with the Cracked Montana Earth backgrounder by our Lisa Strahl (Mona Lisa) for Cornish Heritage Farms...just the right *earthy* look I was after.
These aren't the most *spring-y* colors, but paired together, the vanilla panel just had a light/brightness about it...everything is so brown and gross here in Chicagoland these days that I'll be doing a happy dance at the first sign of Spring!
You can search the gallery for other challenge cards using keyword DCS208!
Thanks, Jami, for another fun challenge!

i love the way that you placed the flower stamp and cut around some features and cut some off--very creative and, well, AWESOME! really makes the card pop. great use of stitching, esp the way that it compliments the pattern in the ribbon. excellent work! tfs.

Wow! This is too fantastic! I love the rich colors and the ribbon is so great. Oh, my gosh, this is the second card I've seen today using the Cracked Montana Earth. I absolutely love the way it looks on a card -- with flowers, no less!
