more new things adventure

I received the new stamp set Enjoy The Moment free when I attended the Stampin' Up! OnStage virtual event.  I like the images and I really like the sentiments, but I would probably not have purchased it because I had difficulty imagining it in use.  I couldn't let that stop me, though, could I?  I started by copying samples I saw and liked but I was feeling limited by the color palettes, all neutrals with a little green/teal/yellow.  Even so, I thought it would look good in the Atlantic Hearts Sketch.  While looking for a color challenge to work with, I decided to go out on a limb and try the one from Color Throwdown:

stamp set - Enjoy the Moment; ink - Rich Razzleberry, Memento Tuxedo Black; Stampin' Write marker - Rich Razzleberry; card stock - Basic Black, Very Vanilla (regular and thick), Rich Razzleberry; embossing folder - Painted Texture D; other - Blending Brushes 

I'm really pleased with the results.  The new Blending Brushes are so much easier to work with than sponges for this kind of ink application!

I really like the feel of this card, great sentiment. The nature images want to make you take a short pause to remember nature. Nicely done. Thank you for sharing with AHSC.
