What could be prettier than a pop of rich colors, a simple image and a wee bit of bling? This kickin’ little card for my “20-something” niece was inspired by my tip for today and #6 in my Top 10 Ways to Get Your Stampin’ Mojo Going: NATURE!
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- The ombr? effect of these color shades (Pumpkin Pie, Tangerine Tango, Real Red) represents an Arizona sunset–one of the most awe inspirating works of nature I get to witness from my home in Tucson.
- I snipped the Real Red boot (Bootiful Occasions), popped it up on Stampin’ Dimensionals and added Rhinestone Basic Jewels for added pizzazz. As an aside, I have a pair of red cowgirl boots that I bought 15 years ago! Love ’em with jeans!
- A little “surgery” was performed to separate the boot and sentiment into two stamps. Makes it much easier to freely stamp the sentiment!
