Loonie Stampers Challenge #5

Here is this week's LSC picked by Charlene. She picked Dark Chocolate, Aqua Mist and Lemon Tart for us to use along with any Floral Stamp Set from PTI (originally Garden of Life was picked...I think) SO I used Garden of life with mine.

Now, I also cheated a bit. About 3 weeks ago when I had the pleasure of meeting Char in MH, she brought me some printed pages of Becky's Demi Design papers. So This pattern had the perfect colors and I REALLY wanted to use more of her papers. I thought this was a good way to multi task while stamping...LOL

So I first cut the AM paper and inked the edges, matted it on white. Then I took Becky's pattern paper which is called "Recorded" from the Piffaro line. Seriously you NEED to go get them from her blog. I cut the paper into a diagonal to go across the page, then I trimmed all around the edges a bit more. Next I chopped it into strips, also cutting the white that separated the rows off. Then I inked each edge and arranged them over top the AM paper.

Then flower from Garden of life is embossed in Chocolate scented embossing powder, which sadly doesn't smell after it is heated, Bummer! I added the sentiment in Dark chocolate ink (PTI) and the lemon tart grosgrain ribbon. As a finishing touch I took my new White Opal & Lemon Yellow Liquid Pearls and made little dots.

Be sure to check in on my LSC Buddies to see what they have created!! If you are up to playing along please do and leave a link in a comment for us!! We would all Love to see what you do with this combo!! Little shout out to Maria & Donelda who I KNOW like to play along!!
