drummer boy...

Found some time to play along with a couple of challenges this morning. For this card I combined the Papertake Weekly challenge with todays Color Throwdown challenge. I have been eyeing this adorable stamp at Michael's for the last several weeks so I picked it up yesterday while running errands and I just couldn't wait to ink it up. I colored the image with Prismacolor pencils, blending with odorless mineral spirits and a blending stump. What I used:
Stampendous Drummer Boy
Stampin' Up! Best Yet
chocolate chip, more mustard, old olive, GP white card stock
Basic Grey designer paper
cuttlebug embossing folder
Momento black stamp pad
chocolate chip classic stamp pad
lg oval, ticket corner punches
Prismacolor pencils, OMS and blending stumps
copics for flesh tones

Absolutely adorable, Debi! I think I have this stamp and it's never seen ink! I even have the "pa rum pa pum pum" to go with it! You've inspired me! Thanks for playing the Throwdown!

Welcome to the 100th Color Throwdown Celebration!  I was so pleased when the girls asked me to play along with them for their big celebration.  Today if you visit all the blogs (see the list below) you have the chance to win some amazing prizes that have been donated  by various companies.  My prize that I will be choosing a random winner for will be a $25 gift certificate from You need to have commented on my blog before midnight on July 12th EST to qualify for the prize.  You also need to play along with the challenge to use Regal Rose, Certainly Celery, Real Red and Baja Breeze on a project and put a direct link in Mr Linky over on the Color Throwdown blog .  Now if you don't have the exact colors don't worry, just use the closest you have. On my card I used Our Daily Bread Designs; Scripture Series 1 stamps set.  The verses in this set where selected from various verses submit by members of SplitCoastStampers that Kelley, the owner of ODBD, then made into this fabulou
