Sometimes you are able to get the most creative when you are limited to what you can use on a project. This is the reasoning behind our next challenge, the Limited Ingredients Challenge. Customers are provided with a specific list of supplies to create a one-of--a-kind project.
Here is the list of supplies you are able to use for this challenge. You don't HAVE to use all of these supplies, but you cannot use anything that is not included on this list (except for a neutral ink, like white, gray and black)
- white cardstock
- white or transparent glitter(Prisma Glitter)
- 1-3/4" circle punch or die
- 1" strip of light gray cardstock (Soft Stone)
- melon cardstock & ink (Melon Berry)
- aqua cardstock & ink (Aqua Mist)
- golden yellow cardstock & ink (Harvest Gold)
Here's my take on this Limited Ingredients Challenge.
I decided to use the Soft Stone strip to house my sentiment. It got a bit lost on the Aqua Mist card base, so I trimmed it with strips of white cardstock.
I stamped the flowers from In Bloom onto Melon Berry cardstock with Charcoal Palette ink and cut them out with scissors. I then added a bit of glitter to the center for sparkle.
- STAMPS: In Bloom, Basket of Blessings, Polka Dot Basics II
- INK: Fresh Snow, Charcoal Palette
- PAPER: Aqua Mist, Melon Berry, Harvest Gold, Stamper's Select White
- OTHER: Prisma Glitter
- FINISHED SIZE: 4-1/4" x 5-1/2"
Now that you've seen what I cam up with, take a look at these amazing creations, by the best in the business!
