You Light Up My Life

#stampinup   This week's Pals Paper Arts Challenge is a simple sketch. Sometimes the simple sketches are the hardest--for me, anyway. The challenge is doubly hard because I only have one package of designer series paper while I wait impatiently for my first order to arrive tomorrow. I had to improvise on the background of the design.

PPA-304-June09 

I knew the medallion from the "Moroccan Nights" stamp set would be perfect for the circle element, but I wasn't sure how to fill in the "blank" space. Fortunately, this set has a small star element that worked nicely! So, I stamped the medallion in Cajun Craze onto the corner of a Very Vanilla panel and then randomly stamped the star in Dapper Denim. I adhered this piece to a Dapper Denim mat and then onto a Cajun Craze card base.

Next, I stamped one of the lanterns from the "Moroccan Nights" set in Cajun Craze onto a  2" x 4" Very Vanilla piece. I stamped a sentiment from the "Pun Intended" host set in Dapper Denim. I adhered this to a just-larger piece of Dapper Denim. I tied a length of Dapper Denim Ruched Ribbon around the top of this piece before adhering it to the card.

I really like how the new Dapper Denim In Color works with the classic Cajun Craze for these Moroccan-flavored designs.
