Happy Krafty Chicks Thursday to you!

Today we also introduce a new Guest Designer to play in the Hen House with us. Let us welcome Wendy from Olive Farm Crafts with open arms and send her some love in her comment section.

For our stamp challenge this week, I created a Thank You card. Anyone who shops with me as their demonstrator in September will receive one See the sidebar for current catalogues. Here's a close up:

Today we also should be introducing a new Guest Designer to play in the Hen House with us but the talented Rachelle is staying for another month. Don't forget to send her some love in her comment section. her link is at the end along with our Design Team's links.

For our Stamp challenge this week, I created this fabulous card using my Colour Combo Challenge using the colours from the Mediterranean Blooms Suite. Check out page 34 of the Annual Catalogue 2024-2025 for more inspiration.

 I can honestly say at first I thought it easy breezy, those colours go magnificently together. But I don't have the Mediterranean Blooms Suite to play with. I also wanted to use the first layout from page 22, which kind of asks for Designer Series Paper.  I only two packs that are current, an luckily the Countryside Inn DSP uses shades of blue, ie Balmy Blue and Night of Navy.

Once I figured out the DSP, how else was I going to introduce the three other colour but with flowers. And these daisies were perfect for the job. I used a Spnoge dauber to add the orange centres.

Products used

• Stamp set: Happy Little Things (163706)
• Card stock: Pumpkin Pie (105117), Daffodil Delight (119683), Garden Green (102584), Basic White (159276)

• Accessories: Cheerful Daisies dies (161296), Sponge Dauber (133773)

This card came together quickly as most of the elements were all ready for me. Sometimes while creating a project, I decide to go another way or the element doesn't fit right as envisioned so I stash them in the stamp case for another day. Today was the day to put  these together! I only have to emboss the background layer and assemble.
