Papaya Collage is a new stamp set in the 2012-13 Stampin' Up! catalog. I wish I could have been in the room when they were discussing what to name this set of stamps. I cannot see any relationship between a papaya and this cool collection of images. The first image I wanted to work with is the delicate leafy image.
Stamps: Papaya Collage, Loving Thoughts
Ink: Basic Black, More Mustard, Night of Navy, Elegant Eggplant
Paper: Elegant Eggplant, More Mustard, Basic Black and Very Vanilla
Punches: Curly Label
Big Shot: Perfect Polka Dots TIEF, Beautiful Wings Embosslit
Extras: Champagne Shimmer Paint, Sponges, Black Satin ribbon, Basic Rhinestones
I mixed a few drops of the Champagne Shimmer paint with some rubbing alcohol and sprayed it over the stamped images. The result is a light glimmery, golden sparkle that is really pretty but I am unable to capture it. Take my word for it, it is really pretty.
Just a little stamping to finish off the inside of the card. Have a wonderful Sunday and remember to check out all the retiring stamp sets and accesories!
