Dynamic Duos #34 Thank You

Hi there

Today I wanted to make a bright and fun thank you card for family who hosted Christmas and especially for the 6 and 8 year old nieces Aisha and Amelia, who gave up their bedrooms for us.  Pink and bling are always a good start, so I went with this week’s Dynamic Duos #34 colour combo of Island Indigo and Melon Mambo.  Get ready with your sunglasses for this one!

This is the first time I have inked up the (now retired) Hostess set ‘Pedal Presents’ and it is cute and fun.  I have embossed the bike with Melon Mambo embossing powder on black cardstock which makes a bold statement.  The flowers were coloured with Copics in matching colours and popped up in the basket.  I helped the nieces plant seedlings into the flower boxes on the verandah of their cubbyhouse, so I hope this will remind them (it is the most amazing cubbyhouse I have seen!).  It is also the first time I have used the Oval Accent Bigz die which is quite large, but it shows a nice amount of Island Indigo which I have embossed with a new (non SU) embossing folder called ‘Posies’ to continue the floral theme.

This is a bright fun thank you card in a great colour combo.

  1. Hi Judy, wow what a stunning way to use the colours from our challenge this week. I love the way you embossed the bike on the black, and the gorgeous embossing on the Island Indigo layer. Just gorgeous! Thanks for sharing your card with us this week at Dynamic Duos! Hope you are surviving the heat ok, good excuse to stay inside and stamp! 🙂
