Watermelon & Mints Live Simply

I played along with the color combination challenge at Split Coast Stampers.  This weeks is called Watermelon & Mints at Night.  The colors were Stampin Up! colors of Watermelon Wonder, Mint Macaron, and Night of Navy.  I just had to try that combination.  I don't have any of those colors, so I had to improvise from my stash.  The Market Street paper pad from My Mind's Eye matched up pretty close when I held it up to the computer screen, so I started there.  I added in Close to My Hearts Outdoor Denim card stock and ink to take the place of Night of Navy.

Supplies Used:
Stamp - Trust God - Stampin Up!
Paper - Market Street - My Mind's Eye, Outdoor Denim - Close to My Heart
Ink - Outdoor Denim - Close to My Heart
Dies - Spellbinders
Ribbon - Maya Road

Courage Card

I played along with the card sketch challenge at Split Coast Stampers.  This sketch is their SC632.  I've been challenging myself to use up what I have (because then I get to buy new supplies) and to break out some stamps that need some love.  I truly love the Blue Skies set from Verve Stamps, there's so many wonderful quotes in this set.

Supplies used:
Paper - Market Street - My Mind's Eye
Ink - Juniper, Chocolate - Close to My Heart
Stamp - Blue Skies - Verve Stamps
Ribbon - Maya Road
