Yikes! As You See It #247 is another speed challenge - "blazing blossoms!" That might be a tough one to speed through, lol. OK, what's a way I could get some speedy bang for my buck? DSP, of course, and how about 2-step stamping? I happen to have just the thing in the Fine Art Floral suite! I love this big brush-stroke blossom, and it has LAYERS - that normally I would heat-emboss, or gild, but works just as well for color accents! I assembled everything I thought I needed, and started the clock! I Rectangle-Stitched my layers, stamped my flower in Mango Melody with Pumpkin Pie accents, added the leaves and then quick cut the sentiment from a scrap of Mango. I assembled everything onto my card base, trimmed my envelope flap, and then hm, sorry, gonna have to have a few sequins, lol. This added another minute and 10 seconds, for a total time of 8 minutes and 23 seconds! Not bad! Good thing showing a picture of my desk when it's over isn't part of the challenge, lol.

I love this bright card! I never even thought of using this set but it's perfect. Using the DSP is a great time saver too. Thanks for joining us again Heather - I'd begun to think you were having a week off! :-)
