Stampin’ Up! UK Around the World Challenge Feb 15
Well you know what happens each month, I begin to get myself challenged by the Around the World Stampin’ Up Challenge Blog and the fact that as I am on the Design Team, I need to create something unusual and inspiring. This month, I’ve seen the amazing projects by the rest of the team and began to doubt whether my simplistic style was good enough.
But…. When I’m writing these posts, I often sit with my headphones plugged into my mobile phone and have youtube music videos playing as background. And this evening I was scrolling through my ‘history’ to find something to listen to and found a video that one of my demo friends, Nicky Dexter, posted recently. It was the lip dub to Convention 2012’s theme song. I wasn’t a demonstrator at the time of that convention, but the song still plays when I’m on hold to our European Support team, and I love the fun tune and energy it has.
However, it’s the lyrics that set my poor little mind at rest this evening
“I am independent, I am dedicated, doin’ it my way, doin’ it my way”
So although the other designers are amazing crafters, their style isn’t my style, and perhaps that was why I was asked to join the team in the first place. Because I have a different style.
Well, after all that, I am presenting my card for you, using the required Island Indigo, Real Red and Daffodil Delight colours across the awesome new Happy Congratulations stamp set. I’ve pinched buttons from the Regals and Neutrals Collections and the sentiment from A Dozen Thoughts.
It certainly meets the colour requirements, and for me? Well, it’s most definitely my style!
Now go! Run! Get challenged yourself!
