This is for today's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE - Quilling. I have never tried this until today. It is quite fun and easy. Today is my 1st day of stamping since Friday so if you know me you know I have been out of sorts. I think I am finally gaining ground on this summer cold/allergy fit I have been suffering with. Anyway for my layout I used today's CLEAN AND SIMPLE CHALLENGE - Sketch. For my color combo of summer sun, pumpkin pie and really rust I used Saturday's lovely INSPIRATION CHALLENGE - Better Homes & Gardens Room guest hosted by Lori. I loved the colors in this inspiration and knew I wanted to use them, The CAS sketch was perfect and so I grabbed my July released Sunshine Set from CLEAR AND SIMPLE STAMPS because these colors just screamed sunshine and I knew I could make a circle with my 1st attempt at quilling. LOL. I used a punched foam circle and inked it in summer sun then rolled it in realy rust and stamped it. I applied some Ranger Yellow stickles in the circle then placed my quilled circle on top of the stickles. What better way to make it stick than with stickles. I hand drew some sun rays with pumpkin pie marker and covered them with some clear stickles. The sentiment is stamped with really rust and is the title to one of my fav songs of easy listening so it is also for my dear friend Deb for the DARE TO GET DIRTY CHALLENGE - Moved by the Music. I used some scraps of cs for my matts. Hope you like it.
