adventures with Stampin' Blends

When I saw the newest sketch at Atlantic Hearts Challenge, I thought about posting the card I created last week for CASEing Tuesday (you can see it here, in the upper left), since the sketch was similar and I hadn't yet posted it here.  Then I realized that it was a good reason to use one of the other stamps in that set (it's my favorite set this week) and practice more with my Stampin' Blends:

stamp sets - Better Together, Flying Home; ink - Memento Black, Dapper Denim (on the envelope); Stampin' Blends - various; Stampin' Write markers - Calypso Coral, Old Olive; card stock - Whisper White, Pear Pizzazz, Old Olive, Calypso Coral, Marina Mist; punch - Blossom Builder

I can't tell you exactly which Stampin' Blend colors I used, because several times I didn't like the color of something, so I colored over it with another color, and sometimes a third, until I liked it - one of the best things about using Stampin' Blends, and there's no paper pilling!
