GCA# 61 - Poppin' Pastels!!

Hello all!!! Now you can't say I didn't give you a heads up that this technique was coming!! This technique has been around for the longest time and is really easy to do! Poppin Pastels can be as detailed and elaborate as you like or clean and simple.

As you can see in the two posts here and here, what different types of styles can be accomplished with this technique.

If you click on the Poppin Pastels link above it will take you to the tutorial on SCS.

I will put up a fresh sample in the next few days as I am in South Haven, MI right now. Spent a wonderful weekend in this lovely little town with my best BFF - Deb! She has a delightful cottage here and I use it when I have to work on the west side of the state.

So, the challenge this week is to make a card, project or scrapbook page using any type of Forest Friends stamps, upload it either to your blog, or to an online gallery and post a link to your card to this blog entry as a comment by October 10, 2009 at 12 midnight. I will choose the winner through a random drawing and post the next Sunday.

Even if you can't make the drawing deadline, PLEASE feel free to participate in the challenge and upload your creations at any time. I would love to see it! If you upload your card on SCS, Stampin' Addicts or Paper Craft Planet, please put GCA61(NO SPACE IN BETWEEN GCA AND 61) in the keyword section.That way everyone can look at all of the creations at once! If you've been waiting to join in the fun, jump on in and have some fun!! And yes, my challenge is open to everyone who visits, even if you live outside the US!!!

Happy Stamping!!!

I'm going to UTAH next week and will be gone for awhile so I won't be able to do any challenges til I return. I wanted to let you know so you didn't think I vanished.
