OWH & Cocoa Together At Last - 2nd Post Today


This card will serve as my entry for two challenges, OWH's Stars & Stamps Mid Week Throwdown which calls for a card using scallops and Crazy 4 Cocoa Challenge #16 which calls for a card with a Think Spring theme. I used Gardening Cookie (a relitive of Cocoa, I'm sure) as my image and stamped it on SU Whisper White card stock and I colored her with Copics. I used graduating Circle and Scallop Nestabilities to mount the image. I dotted the image paper with A Gelly Roll Pen and dotted the Scallop paper with my Signo White Gel Pen. The designer paper is Basic Gray and I received it as a gift from a wonderful new friend, Carol. She was sweet enough to share some with me. The sentiment is computer generated and matted on SU's Bashful Blue card stock that I cut out with SU's Scallop Oval punch. The scallop strips along the top and bottom are also from Basic Grey and I added a piece of gingham ribbon I found in my ribbon box. Some gems became my final touch.
