For A Fun Couple

It's time for Doodle Pantry's May digital stamp release. Wow, did Laurie out-do herself this month. Wait until you see what she has created for all of us.

I am using the Fancy Flamingo set. Look at all these fabulous images and sentiments, not to mention incredible digital papers you get with this set.

Here is the card I created:


All the images, the sentiment and the designer paper are from the Fancy Flamingo set. There are two different flamingos that come in the set, but I chose to use two of the same one. I just flipped one of them horizontally so they are looking at each other. I colored the flamingos with Copic markers (pink - R81, R83 and R85; blue - B02, B05 and B16; beaks - N6 and N8). The heart was downloaded from the internet and I placed the sentiment inside the heart. I added bling around the necks of the flamingos and at the bottom by their feet. I cut out the flamingos using Spellbinder's Opulent Ovals and popped it up on the designer paper, then layered it on blue card stock and a white card stock base.

A new digital challenge will also begin at noon today and run until May 24th over at the Doodle Pantry blog. The rules are simple...just use a Doodle Pantry image, not just a sentiment, and enter your card using the inlinkz button. There are lots of images on Doodle Pantry's Freebie page. Just for entering the challenge, you will receive the Fruitful Star set free. Here is a picture of that set.

 

Always look on Doodle Pantry's Specials page before checking out. This month, the free with purchase set is Pearfect Wormy. But you need to hurry, it is only free with purchase until May 24th.

  10. Oh my, Susan, what an adorable pair, and card! LOL It makes me smile really big! I can NOT believe that gorgeous patterned paper comes with the set. Wow. She did outdo herself. Lucky you get to play with it all. You are so talented to bring in so many stunning additions, the gorgeous frame, and heart, just finish off this wonderful card. I always kid my hubby, that it's time we got some flamingos for the yard, we are getting old enough. Like it's a rite of passage for retired people. Sun City is FULL of them, here in Arizona! LOL It's a fun image, no matter how you look at it! Kudos.
