Double Down: Lucky U



Happy Saturday! It's Viva Las Vegas Virtual Stamp Night over at Splitcoast Stampers...a fun-filled weekend full of challenges. Read more about it here. I managed to get the first challenge done last night, Double Down, before getting sucked into internet surfing for the rest of the night! lol!


For the Double Down challenge, you had to make two identical cards using several different themes built around "fun". I used a large playing card cut in half that I had bought at the Target Dollar Spot a long time ago. I had planned on using the Queen side, but ended up liking the back side better. And the exciting news...I used a stamp from one of my Scarlet Lime kits! I think that's a first! I vaguely remembered one of their stamp sets having card suits, and I found it! Isn't the little ticket image cute too? To finish it off, I made the "u" from the Go Go Alphabet with my Big Shot and stamped the "Congratulations" inside from a SAB set.


What are you up to this weekend? Next weekend is crazy, so I need to get a lot done this weekend, but it's not looking good so far! lol! Thanks so much for stopping by! Hugs and happy stamping!
