High Hopes challenge 59 ~~ a spacey sneakie peek!

Good Sunday morning to you all!! I hope you are having a great weekend!! Today's High Hopes challenge is brought to us by Jeanne ~~ & the challenge is to use spacey colors ~ blue, green & purple! Today is also the first day of the sneakie peekies!!! The new release is Wednesday......be sure to check out all the Divas blogs for a glimpse at some awesome new images!!




Here is my very first card done with the new release!! I don't know the name of this stamp yet.....when I find out I will edit this post....but isn't he the cutest little 3 eyed critter you've ever seen?? I colored him with Prismas.....used SU's Garden Green, Tempting Turquoise (this used to be my favorite color long ago, but haven't touched it in probably a year!) & Elegant Eggplant. The designer paper is from the Basic Grey Junebug line....although it's not in the little 6x6 pad ....this is a 12x12 sheet I picked up at my LSS. The colors were perfect! I used my Oval Nesties (leaving a bit of the rocket "dust" outside of the oval).....lots of Stickles.....sewed around the edge of the paper twice.....& used the most obnoxious ribbon I could find in my stash. It's one of the first spools I bought....it's an iridescent purplish green...what was I thinking...but it worked well as the finishing touch for this card.





I hope you can play along!! Be sure to check out the High Hopes blog for everyone else's creations for inspiration...& as always you can enter to win a couple of High Hopes goodies of your very own!!

**ALL of the new release stamps will be available at 7 Kids College Fund starting on Wednesday, the official release day!!!!

I will be back tomorrow with another sneakie peek....hope you can visit!!!

Hi Michelle! Aw, this is adorable cute! I love Dustin's drawing, and you did him proud with that colouring you did! I love how you tilted the oval too. And that bow/ribbon is perfect! You were thinking ahead when you bought it, ;-)
