Yay! I’m finally debuting as a Design Team Member this week for Dynamic Duos. I am a week later than everyone else due to being gone on vacation for 9 days. This week is a special and exciting week at Dynamic Duos. The challenge blog is now one year old and we are celebrating! We all want to thank everyone that participates with us or comments on submissions. Won’t you come join us this week?
For this weeks “One Year Anniversary”, you get to pick any of our past challenges:
And this is my card for the challenge:
I decided to use Dynamic Duo Challenge #24:
I whipped this card up rather quickly last night as Dave and I arrived from Bermuda to Boston at 8:00 a.m. and it was almost 10:30 a.m. by the time disembarkation was over with. We then drove six hours back to Maine. I really wanted to participate this week and I do have to tell you that my stamp room is quite in shambles right now because my new products arrived the day before I left for vacation. I had also begun the process of removing the upcoming retired stamp sets and colors from my stash before I left so I’ve got piles everywhere!
I used some new products for this card so this is a little sneak peek for you also. Do you love the mosiac theme going on here? Mosaic stamps, mosaic punch, and mosaic embossing folder. We also have coordinating mosaic designer paper that is just gorgeous. I hope to show you that later this week some time!
I inked up the inside of my embossing folder with Soft Suede Ink using my Brayer and embossed my Soft Suede Cardstock. All of the white inked images that you see here along with the sentiment, were stamped using Whisper White Ink and I sprinkled White Embossing Powder and set with my Heat Tool. I “blinged” up the card using Rhinestone Jewels.
Here is the challenge that I used for my card:

Very pretty Debbie. I just made a card using these products; they're so versatile. Great color combo pick.
Thanks Patti! Just arrived home from Bermuda and was SO anxious to play with my new products. It was hard to leave knowing they were all sitting in my stamp room untouched!
Wow Debbie! This is gorgeous! I love this color combination and especially like the technique you've used, inking the embossing folder. 🙂
Thanks Susie, this new embossing folder is so bold that it was quite easy to add ink to this one!
Glad you are back and able to create a fabulous card on time!
Thanks Janet, although I loved my trip to Bermuda I sure missed my stamps!
Stunning card Debbie! I can't wait to get this set!! Your card is both elegant and edgy….great work with that colour combo!

This is gorgeous Debbie! I was not sold on the mosaic idea when I first saw the new catalogue but lets just say I am now 🙂
HaHa Hayley, sorry I'm going to make you spend more money! Thanks!
Super cute card, Debbie!!! I love this mosaic theme 🙂
Thanks Lisa. Coordinating products sure make this easy!
Ha – your stamp room sounds a lot like mine… Only I don't have a vacation as an excuse 😉 Absolutely love this card, the two-tone embossed background is gorgeous.
Don't you hate it when that happens. I've got everything out and organized now. Anxious to get this weekend to use more of it. Thanks Tara!
