Rubbernecker Blog Stroll and New Release


Good morning and welcome to the Rubbernecker blog stroll and release party for three new Rubbernecker Stamp sets!!! Whoohoo!!!!! To celebrate this release, we invite you to blog stroll along with the Rubbernecker Red-Hot Mommas. The stroll begins at the Rubbernecker Stamps Blog where you will find all the details on how to win one of the new sets. In order to have a chance to win one of the new sets you must leave a comment on all the blogs and guess the phrase in the correct order from the clues left on the designer's blogs. The winners will be picked from random numbers drawn on Friday, 12:00 Noon.

Here is my phrase clue: Teddy. To find the next clue, stroll over to Juliana's Blog.





I used the new Flower Silhouettes #468 set for both my cards today. I used markers to color the image, added bling to the flower centers, and twill around the stems. Twill was also added to the scalloped layers, the orange layer was run through the Cuttlebug with the Dotted Swiss folder, and the sentiment was popped up on dimensionals.

Recipe:
Stamps: Rubbernecker Flower Silhouettes #468
Paper: Prism Simply Smooth White, Prism Vibrant Pink, Prism Intense Orange, Kiwi Kiss, Making Memories dp called Just Chillin
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Old Olive, Only Orange
Accessories: Twill, Bling, Martha Stewart Scallop Punch, Nestabilities, Dimensionals, Cuttlebug





The Flower Silhouettes image was stamped on a scrap piece of dp with Ranger Distressed Peeled Paint ink and the sentiment was stamped over the image. The background paper is from 7 Gypsies Gypsy Market dp and the ribbon from May Arts. The edges of the image were distressed and pearls and a clip with black ribbon finish it off.
