The Stamp Review Crew is featuring Lilypad Lake this week. My plan was to make a soft card of white with shades of blue. But there sat my folder of Mango Melody still on my desk from the graduation cards I made earlier this week. It seemed to be screaming "Pick me...pick me" like my third graders used to when they absolutely had to be the first one picked in a game or activity! I just couldn't ignore it! I think I may have a new favorite color.....
I am sandwiched between two of my best stamping buddies this week! They are both fabulous stampers and are very entertaining to hang out with! So don't miss either stop.....head back to Dawn Tidd or forward to Heidi Baks - enjoy!
The sketch from Cas(e) this Sketch was the basis of my design.
Stamp Set: Lilypad Lake
Paper: Whisper White, Mango Melody
Ink: Memento, Balmy Blue, Blends: Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Soft Sky, Pool Party, Crumb Cake,Night of Navy
Love it and the Mango Medley is a great choice. Looks like a sunny spot to perch that adorable lake scene and those epoxy dots are the perfect touch! Bet your ready for some of those days!
ReplyDeleteLinda, this is exquisite! I’m so glad you listened to the Mango Melody, it’s the perfect color to set off the cool blue of the water and sailboats. 😊
ReplyDeleteAwesome card Linda! Love the fun colors and the little sailboats on the water are perfect. :)
ReplyDeleteThat color does indeed look very pretty! And what a gorgeous card you've made with it.
ReplyDeleteLinda, I totally get why this juicy mango could be your new favorite... just gorgeous! I love the scene you've created with Lilypad, and that it's hanging in our CTS gallery!

Gorgeous! That sun/moon is EVERYTHING on this card! Love it!
ReplyDeleteReally beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLovely serene scene you created. Very calming to balance out the mango. You tell that color to just pipe down! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a great color to use with this set....a little bit of happy mango with a calming seascape! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThis sunny cheery card is totally delightful, Linda! Love! Love!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I ever would have tried Mango with those stamps - but it is absolutely perfect!! (I love the color, but in my own crafting it intimidates me a bit!)
ReplyDeleteThat Mango really caught my eye Linda and I had to leave a quick comment - it makes a wonderful frame for your sailboat seascape!
ReplyDeleteOh, YES! Agree with everyone - the mango is wonderful and such a refreshing choice. It really is a perfect color for an uplifting card and sentiment. Totally gorgeous!
