Postal Collage Lucky for Festive Friday #FF0179
Magnificent Magnolia for Time Out #283

Postal Collage Spring Breeze for Color Throwdown #827

Happy Friday - again!

I managed to get some time in my craft room today and played along with a color challenge from Color Throwdown.  I just loved these bright colors, especially on a dull day!  I brought out my Waffle Flower Postal Collage Spring Breeze and used 3 of the stamps from the stencil set.

Here's a sneak peek:

And here's the challenge badge from Color Throwdown:

The Postal Collage Stencils from Waffle Flower are so easy to use and I love that you can use the output as a whole sheet of stamps, or cut them and make them into individual ones.  Which is exactly what I did here.
 
I stenciled all of the images and then die cut them with the matching die.  I then used my paper cutter to cut them into individual stamps.  I made this card for Color Throwdown and made a second card using the remaining images.
 
Here's my first card:

For my second card, I turned the card onto the horizontal and didn't use my star stencil in the background - I just left the background blank.

For my first card, I used the same colors I had used for the butterflies on the star stencil.  It helps to anchor the butterflies.

Here's my second card.  Instead of the background, I used my white gel pen to add little white dots all over the butterflies and kept the teal a little more muted in color.

I know the design team at Color Throwdown would love it if you played along with their challenge!  As for me, I will be back again tomorrow with another card.  In the meantime, warm hugs and prayers for those of you who need a little lift tonight
