SSUS swap and a double page

I did get the latest card photographed, so here's the post.  I made this card for a swap in the Sensational Stampin' Up Swappers group I belong to.  I used the new set Just Believe and some of the new DSP from the package Walk in the Park. The paper looked like smooth stones covered in moss to me, and that made me think of an Asian garden, and that sparked the design.  The three "pebbles" on the left side of the card are the clear dots that belong to the build a brads!  I wanted to continue with the pebble idea, and these were the size I wanted.  The colors are directly out of the new color coach.  At first I thought Wild Wasabi and Perfect Plum? Really?  But I decided to try it.  At first I was non-plussed by what I had designed.  But the more I look at it, the more I like it!

I stamped the image in black Staz-on and then "highlighted" the plant with my markers.  Not sure about the sponging around the edges.  I left that off on the swaps I made for the gals.

Next is my latest pages in my girlfriend's new baby scrapbook.  The paper is retired, and called Muirfield.  The color is the returning color Baja Breeze.  Such a wonderful hue of blue, don't you think? 


Thanks for taking some time to spend here today.  Have a great day!
