Favorite Convention Make N Take

You know I love the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set and this card from Convention uses it to the MAX!!  So of course I love it!!

And it is really so simple, yet involves lots of color and 2 stamp sets.  I need to remember to stamp more on envelopes.  Love the look and it gives the recipient a sneak peek of the card.  I started with Calypso Coral and randomly stamped the stripe image from Gorgeous Grunge.  Then the Summer Starfruit large splotches.  Stamping off to lighten the color.  Then Pool Party splotch and Finally the Old Olive fine splatter. 

The individual elements were an Old Olive arrow from Hello Lovely snipped out.  A Pool Party strip folded and stamped with Pool Party ink using the diagonal lines, with a snip of Silver Glimmer paper adhered to the bottom edge.  A Crisp Cantaloupe 1 3/4 circle stamped with the & sign in Crisp Cantaloupe and the Hello stamped in Calypso Coral.  A piece of This N That Washi tape.  All layered on top of the card front.  Random, Eclectic, very Artsy!!!

Make this any color combo, any sentiment for a GREAT ALL occasion card.
