Good morning, everyone! I can't believe it but an entire week has passed since I introduced you to the newest feature at Utah Divas International -- a Weekly Color Challenge! So that can only mean one thing -- time for another challenge! And look what we have for you today!
I found these fabulous shoes at Kohls.com and immediately thought of our UDI mom and mentor, Maxine Conrad! Max, you see, has a thing for shoes ... and handbags ... and clothes ... and bling ... and ... So, Max, this one's for you!
The color combination this week is fun and happy -- Real Red, Chocolate Chip, So Saffron and Regal Rose. And fun and Happy is exactly what I created today using these fab colors!
I'll admit, I haven't used my Two-Step Owl Extra Large Punch much. I've seen so many cute projects but just never seem to grab it when I'm beginning the creative process. So today I started with this adorable little owl. There is very little stamping on this card but isn't it adorable!
it's clean, simple and pretty basic but fun to do and fun to receive. When I finished the card, I just felt it needed a little something so I added a whole lot of bling by putting Basic Rhinestone's one each and every scallop on the circle -- Ohh la la! It definitely has attitude now!
Other supplies used include 5/8" Satin Ribbon in Pretty in Pink, Play Date Designer Series Paper, the 2 3/8" Scallop Circle Punch, the 1 3/4" Circle Punch and Stampin' Dimensionals!
That's it for today! I do hope you'll stop by the Utah Divas International Blog sometime soon to see what the other Design Team Members have created with this yummy color combo! And we invite you to play along with us by leaving a link to your challenge project on the linky tool at UDI!
Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you come back soon!
Very cute, Gretchen. I need to pull mine out too! I was wondering what you used for the black part of his eyes. It looks like it is dimensional, and I couldn't tell if it was a brad or crystal effects or what?
Thanks,
Bonnie S

I love your card - the heart paper is so cute, and of course, Mr. Hootie is one of my favorite things from the current catalog. And, I must say, I really love the shoes - wish I was young enough and brave enough to wear them!! I'm checking out UDI. Thanks!

What a cute card! I have the owl punch and haven't used it yet. My demonstrator keeps borrowing my punch and making cute projects with it, but I keep forgetting to ask to see her projects. I'm going home tonight to get out my owl punch and put it front and center on my stamping table.
