I'm back from the beach and stampin' again, I thought dh was going to have to do CPR on me,LOL. This is for today's COLOR CHALLENGE - Elegant Teal Olives. I also used today's Anni-VERVE-sary Sketch # 12. Today is the last day and I think I have done 3 of these now. Just no time to stamp. Julee has done a fantastic job presenting all 12 of these. OK onto today's project. I have a new found friend who recently had a tragedy in her life and I already had a card picked out from my stack to send her but when I finished this one I liked it better so this is what she will be getting. I hope she likes it. The main image was stamped in black stazon then colored with SU markers. I applied crystal effects to the grapes then doodled around the edge and around the image I made dots. The dew drops were colored with eggplant marker. the sentiment is stamped using omitting and huffing technique then cut out with 1 3/8 circle punch matted on scallop circle punch. The base is stamped with taken w/teal using Baroque Motifs then dots around the swirls.
