Dynamic Duos #49 & FTL237

I made a card today for the Dynamic Duos challenge and the Clean & Simple challenge FTL237. This challenge was to use Basic Gray and Basic Black with a dessert option of giving the card a masculine theme. I think my card meets that as well.  For the Clean & Simple challenge I flipped the sketch.

The card itself is pretty simple. I stamped the stripes. Then I stamped and die cut the telephone.  Next up was the bubble sentiment. To me this was the hardest part - cutting around the bubble. Give me a die instead of scissors any day.  After that the celebrate sentiment and then I ran the panel through my Big Shot with the impression plate.  Hope you like it. Thanks for stopping by!

New SU Photopolymer Stamps

Stampin'Up has finally added photopolymer stamps to their line of stamps! I've come to love the clear stamps. They are so easy to use and I'm so glad SU has finally come around.  Here are 2 cards I made with their first set "Designer Typeset". The first is a one layer card and the second steps it up using the Case This Sketch challenge layout.  Both are for the Moxie Fab Speech Bubble Challenge.

The arrow placement went pretty quickly but the sentiment bubble took me several tries.  I really am scissor challenged as it took me 3 or 4 attempts to cut the bubble to my satisfaction. And after a couple tries of messing up the "hello" I finally stamped that first and then stamped the bubble around it. Duh!  Finally I popped the bubble Hello up on some dimensionals.  I'm looking forward to playing more with this set! Thanks for stopping by.
