Bright Tart & Tangy

...yes, so bright I am nearly blinded! :-)



The design for this card was found in the new catalog (p.126). Once again, I absolutely LOVE the new In Colors! Melon Mambo (the bright pink color) is wonderful! I decided to pair it with Green Galore (a bold bright! Yay!) along with Chocolate Chip/Kraft to tone it down a little. I really like how it turned out. There's just something about super-bright pink and green that just takes me back to elementary school (my double layer scrunch-down socks...alternating the color on top for each foot) and happy times :-)

The card is pretty self-explanatory. The orange slice image I stamped twice for each circle (so I stamped 12 images total). I cut out one image with the 1" circle punch and the other image with the 3/4" circle punch. I layered the smaller punch on top with a Stampin' Dimensional--super easy, but a really nice technique!
