Celebration Challenge


So, here is the card that I came up with for the Celebration Challenge that Shelli Gardner CEO and co-founder of Stampin' UP! has on her website. I noticed while going through my stuff that I have more retired items than current ones. So, most of the stuff I used is retired. I hope that was okay? Summer and Fall are my favorite Seasons and Christmas is definitely my favorite Holiday! I decided to make a fall celebration card since we are now transitioning from summer to fall. Creating this card was a challenge for me because I don't use templates to create my cards. I create as I go so I never know how the card will turn out. I really need to start making templates to cut down on the time it takes to create my cards. The card may look a little blurred because I scanned it instead of taking a picture of it. The envelope is stuck to the card using dimensionals so it was hard to get the scanner to pick up the left portion of the card.


Here is a list of the items that I used.

Paper: Really Rust, More Mustard, Whisper White, DSP Summer Picnic and DSP Creepy Crawly (retired)

Stamps: Loads of Love, Send a Celebration (retired), Year Round Fun II (retired), Whimsical Alphabet (retired)

Ink: Many Marvelous Markers Pumpkin Pie, Really Rust, More Mustard, Old Olive, and Garden Green, Versa Mark ink Pad

Accessories: Big Shot die cut machine, Bigz Scallop Envelope, Emboss Stacks Earths Maize (retired), Hemp Twine, Glue dots, SNAIL Adhesive, Stampin Dimensionals, Paper Snips, Paper cutter, Emboss buddy and heat tool.

Non Stampin' Up products: Stampendous embossing powder in Black and Carnelian
