Team Playtime!

With the availability of "Live" video footage on my Facebook group account, I decided to host a fun stamping play-date with fellow coaches on my team.  I sent them kits to make these two cards with me LIVE on Facebook!

Since this was my first event, I knew it would be difficult to coordinate stamp sets, inks, papers and dies so I created two kits...I pre-stamped the images on their cardstock so they could play along.  In the months to come, I hope we can coordinate our supplies- so that we can stamp together-using the same sets.  But for this go round- it was just fun to experiment and test out the new live feature!
While both cards are similar, the first card incorporates a "recycled" portion of a tag and some cute floral punches.  I love how the white ink creates a bleachy look on the card.
 Yummy posies!

The second card incorporates a sketch I created and shared in my monthly newsletter to my team.  I love creating sketches and it's always fun to use the sketch as inspiration for a card!  Here's the sketch:
 OK...I LOVE how the orange contrasts with the pool color.  Such a beautiful combo!  :)

Want to recreate these cards?  I've compiled a list of items used for both cards below.  Why not Shop today through a party link I set up.  I'll be shopping for supplies myself and one lucky shopper will be the hostess.  The hostess will earn ALL benefits from this party!  Shop today!
