The Mix-It Up Challenge at the Ellen Hutson blog is one of my favorite challenges. I love trying to combine stamps from two different companies in unique and preferable punny ways (okay, I realize sometimes I'm probably just amusing myself). This month's company is a favorite … My Favorite Things.
My process is to take all of my stamp sets from both companies and put them side-by-side to see what might work together. For this card I combined a sentiment from 12 Days (of Christmas) Companion Greetings (You know, 11 Pipers Piping) and the Volcano from My Favorite Things Tiki Party.
I used my Spectrum Noir Colored Pencils and Spica Glitter Pens to color my Volcano that as stamped on kraft cardstock. I added some spewing lava & finished with a few sequins for some splashes of lava outside of the circle.
The layout is a sketch from Pals Paper Arts.
I think it will make a fun valentine.
Adorable, Stef! I love the unique volcano image. I agree…this would make such a cute Valentine! Thanks for playing with the Sketch Team at Pals Paper Arts!
