Orange & Purple with Polkadoodles

Hello Polkadoodles friends! It's Tuesday and that means a sale and challenge with DigiChooseDay from Polkadoodles.

The challenge for the design team today was to use orange and purple and I choose a Fuzzy Puffs digital stamp called Jasper Hot Air Balloon:

I printed the image onto Ranger Watercolor Paper on the smooth side with my Brother Laser Printer and watercolored with Kuretake Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers.

I cut the image out on my Big Shot using Spellbinders' Picot Petite Ovals Etched Dies.

To create the black & white background I used a sentiment from Polkadoodles - Quotes - Winnie Special Moments - "Let's have fun on your special day". I saved it into a new Word.doc (Insert-picture) and copied it. Next I grouped those 2 sentiments and copied again for a full row. Grouped that. I copied and grouped until I had a full sheet of paper filled with this same sentiment. Printer on by ink jet printer on 80 lb. white cardstock. Probably took about a minute to create:

I really like how the simple black & white print pops against the orange and purples.

This is a 5" X 7" card, but the wonderful thing about digital stamps is that they can be resized to whatever size you want! I use them for all sized cards and art journal pages. They are so inexpensive, especially if you wait for DigiChoosDay (Tuesdays) and use the discount.

Thanks for joining me today. I am also submitting this card to the following challenges:

1) NBUS

2) Happy Little Stampers - Watercolour Challenge

3) 613 Avenue Create - AG
