Take a Challenge with Amanda Coleman (Enter by June 21)

DesignTeamHeadshots_AmandaHi everyone!  Amanda here today with my take on the June Waffle Flower Challenge.  This bright, playful photo lends itself to so many fun interpretations.
June Challenge Card Squares
​I am crazy about the arrangement of the ombre canvases in the June Challenge inspiration photo.  While brainstorming a way to mimic the overlapping, curled canvases, I spotted a stack of sticky notes on my desk.  These little sticky notes were the perfect size for a card, and consequently, the perfect size for the scribble and sentiments from the Doily Square Stamp Set.
June Challenge Card Squares 4
​Using Waffle Flower chalk inks, I stamped several different colors onto sticky notes and played around with the arrangement of the on the front of the card.  Once I settled on an arrangement that I was happy with, I stamped the sentiment on the top square.
June Challenge Card Squares 3​Picking the colors for this card was the most fun!  I chose colors based on the inspiration photo, but this card would look equally as lovely using another color palette.  I used #5 from theSpring Blend Inkpad and #9, 10, 12, 13, and 16 from the Summer Blend Inkpad.
June Challenge Card Squares 5
​Gently curl up the ends of each sticky note with a pencil before affixing them to the card.  This will help the ends of the sticky notes spring up like the canvases in the inspiration photo.
June Challenge Card Squares 2
​Add some movement to the card by stamping a few dashes here and there.  These lines may be little, but they can have a big impact on the visual balance of a card.
June Challenge Card Squares
​Have fun with the June Challenge!  I can't wait to see what you make!

  • Great card, Amanda! I’ve never stamped with chalks before. Do you need to prepare them some way to keep them from smearing? Love the look with the dashes, too!

  • This is such a fun card that Amanda has created here!!! So fun with the look that matches the inspiration photo and the colors are so rich and so vivid!! Love her work and I am super impressed with this card!!
