My Favorite in Scrubs

Happy Sunday folks! I hope everyone is doing well. I'm still trying to get used to day shift. My stamping time has definitely dwindled down....I'm so tired when I get home from work that I usually fall asleep on the couch with my dogs and then when I wake up I have to get dinner and chores done. Hopefully my body will finish adjusting to the change soon and I'll get on a good crafting schedule.

Today at Sunday Stamps we have a fun color challenge. It definitely makes one think of flowers or a beach scene but I went with a card that thanks our medical professionals on the front line of the COVID fight. My husband is one of those folks and I am so proud of him and his co-workers. They always do a spectacular job but right now, under so much stress and pressure, they are really kicking butt and taking names. This is a digital stamp from Unity Stamp Co and they do have a male version, I just haven't had time to color it up yet. 

My layout comes from the current sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches. It seems like forever since I was able to play along with them and I really like the sketch this week. It worked perfectly with my image!

For my card I used the 2 bottom colors of the graphic, plus the orange, although my orange on the clipboard ended up a bit darker than I wanted.

Head on over to the Sunday Stamps blog to see what the rest of the DT created and then play along with us, we'd love to see what you do with these colors!

Firing On All Cylinders

We're a Mustang family at my house so as soon as I saw this new stamp from Unity Stamp Co I had to get it. It's of a 1966 Mustang Convertible but I colored it in using our former 1965 Mustang Coupe for inspiration. We belonged to the Kitsap Mustang Club in WA state when we had the '65 and it used to drive hubby crazy when people called the car orange, as the official color was called  Poppy Red. The 66 Mustangs did not have the Poppy Red option so I took creative license when coloring this image :) Besides the '65 we've also owned a 2001 Mustang Convertible, we currently have a 2016 Mustang GT and right before we met hubby had a 1968 Mustang Coupe (my favorite year, I LOVE the '68 Stangs!).

The current sketch at Freshly Made Sketches was the perfect way to use this stamp for the first time! I love the big panel in the sketch that lets you highlight any image you want!

And the inspiration for my card, the 1965 Mustang Coupe we owned when we lived in WA state.
