Hello there and welcome to "Monochromatic" week at Dynamic Duos! This week is special over at Dynamic Duos for a few reasons. First of all, it is our last week with our AMAZING current Design Team. These gals are unbelievable and it is so bittersweet that we celebrate each of them this last week for their awesome creative inspiration. THANK YOU, ladies! Words cannot express how much I appreciate these gals and everything they have done over the past 6 months.
The next reason that this week is special is because we are honoring one of our very special Design Team members, Vicki Burdick to celebrate her birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, VICKI!! Vicki is so amazingly talented and an honest-to-goodness sweet gal. I have admired Vicki's creations for about as long as I have been blogging. My dear friend Lesley is hosting a blog hop in honor of the birthday girl. Check it out HERE.
For my card, I used a set (Stippled Blossoms) that I bought simply because of Vicki's inspiration. She ROCKS this stamp set, no joke! The challenge colors work so well with the two-step stamping. Honestly, two-step stamping usually freaks me out because I am one of those people that has to have everything line up PERFECTLY. But after I stamped this image (without trying too hard to line it up) I was happy with how it looked...on the first try! Whoa, that never happens. Must be the "Vicki Mojo"!
Please join us this week at Dynamic Duos! The challenge closes on Thursday, May 2nd, at Noon (PST). The rest of the Design Team created some fun projects with the colors this week, too. Stop by and say hello...and don't forget to send some birthday smiles to Vicki:
