Adult Coloring Books have been all the rage with the return to the relaxation of childhood coloring. STAMPlorations offers lots of colorables that bring the same relaxation … and then you can turn the colored panels into a card.
I had fun coloring the largest STAMPlorations Love Always Colorable (the pack has multiple sizes of two different images). Strawberry and Chocolate is one of my favorite flavor combinations.

After I finished coloring the cupcake and the rose, I added grey to the background with some enamel dots bringing in a bit more of the pink.
Next, I challenged myself to make a clean and simple Black & White card using the same image for two challenges – the Sunday Stamps Black & White Challenge and the AAA Cards Challenge for their 12th Birthday to make it Clean & Simple featuring Cake.


I kept the smaller sized STAMPlorations Love Always image uncolored matting it with a black cardstock frame.

I paired it with some alcohol ink blended designer paper and a few thin black sticker strips on a white card base. I think this would be a great masculine card.
So whether you like to color … or go with graphic black & white … STAMPlorations paper subscriptions are for you.
Love the monochrome look and feel of your card Stef, very classy. Thanks for joining s at AAA Cards – Tristan DT
