Stampin’ Up! UK Demonstrator Pootles – Friendly Wishes and Quirky Colours Plus Card Giveaway
I love weird and wonderful colour combinations and am forever scribbling them down when something catches my eyes.
To my recollection though, I have no idea what prompted me to put Blushing Bride, Calypso Coral and Basic Black together… my notes don’t say more than BB, BB, CC….!
Anyway though, it seems to work.
I wonder if there’s too much ‘splat’ in the background where I used the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set?
However, I think the balance is about right where I’ve used the Stampin’ Write Markers on the stamp from Friendly Wishes.
I’d be happy to receive the card though, over splat and all! And of course, I’m happy to send it out!
So with that in mind, would anyone like this card?
Leave me a comment and I’ll pick someone at random on Friday 23rd and mail it to them!

I love this card!
Ooo, I like the color combination, and would be tickled pink to receive such a beautiful card. P. S. You can never have too much Gorgious Grunge. 🙂
Beautiful! To me the grunge background represents what I like to be—busy, colorful. You have such a wonderful sense of color and imagination. Thanks for inspiring the world of card making.
I love the color combo and the extra splats!
You’re my “go to” demonstrator for ideas and inspiration. Love this card.
I love the splat. The splat is good! You are good at splat!
Love the colors. I use my Gorgeous Grunge wat too often. Good luck to the winner. I am in USA, and not usually able to win things from UK. Thanks for sharing
Very nice, love the splash effect of the background.
Sam The card is perfect, As an Artist I also love to be different, and being creative with colour and texture is such fun 😀 xx
Oh, love, love that Gorgeous Grunge set, it looks amazing on your card. The sentiment is beautiful and the extra splatter in all those colors really gives this card a lot of wonderful texture.
Thank you for the chance to win this awesome card.

The card is great and the color (yes – US spelling!) combination, while unusual, really works. Plus – anyone would love a card from the (in)famous Pootles
Now that’s one pretty card! You may not remember me; I’m the gal who took so long to figure out how you were making the cool ‘splatters’ and ‘spotty’ bits. Of course, I now have the G Grunge stamp set…it’s my fave too!
Oh, I love this card. every bit of it… and that’s exactly the card that should had been given to you!… you simply put a smile on my face every morning! And THANK YOU for the hostess code present! what a pleasant surprise, really!.

Lovely colour combo ! It’s a lovely card x
I think there is just enough “splat” on the card! It is a lovely card.

Greeting from Canada! I really love all your videos and your beautiful cards.Making your boxes are my fave though! I do believe your the reason I don’t get anything done. 🙂
Hi Sam, if you were to send me this card I would just have to turn around and send it back to you because you truly are “the friend everyone wishes they had!” I’m over in the US, so just save the postage and give yourself a hug from me LOL Thanks for another super inspirational card!
What a stunning card! Love the colour combination xx
I just love the colors! Thank you for all the wonderful cards, projects and ideas. I look forward too seeing your post every morning here in the USA.

Inspirational again, l would like to give this card to my friend Brenda.
Hi Sam, you always have your unique and creative ways to make the cards and boxes. Thanks so much for sharing your projects daily. There’s something else I can learn from you such as time management and coming up with ideas continuously. It’d be wonderful to get your card 🙂
Hi Sam, those colors are beautiful together. Love the card too.
I love this color combination! Very pretty.
Gorgeous colours! Pink and black were my wedding colours. That touch of red just enhances it! Is it weird that I feel like I know you? I very much enjoy your tutorials. Thanks for being so normal!
