Stamp Simply #93 - Combo Challenge

Keyword ssnotime93 - There is no time limit. You can play this challenge and upload your project at Splitcoastand/or your Blog, anytime at all. You (and that means anyone and everyone, blogger or not!) can play as many times as you like!!! The point is to keep it simple, quick and have fun!!! Please link back here.

Combo Challenge – Today’s challenge is two-fold — a color challenge and simple technique.  COLORS — grassy green and sky blue.  I’ve always loved blue and green together.  You MAY add other colors, just make sure you get in plenty of the greens and blues.  SIMPLE TECHNIQUE - PIERCE.  I seem to have gotten away from piercing of late, but I LOVE to do it — so I’m hoping this challenge gets me back into piercing mode!!!  Can’t wait to see what you all do!

Check out the great samples for the Stamp Simply Challenge today on the blogs of these designers:

Another simply stamped card, using the same DP I had out from yesterday, the end piece from a ribbon roll and a sentiment tag already die cut left over from yesterday as well.  My white piping strip is pierced and my 1.5″ Gingham bow was made with the Bow Easy.  I love combining prints such as this — isn’t it fun!!!
