TCP Tuesday: Color Challenge Time!

Hi everyone!!! I'm so excited to be your hostess this week for TCP Tuesday! Last week, I was on a pink and red binge with all those valentines - so this week's challenge has nothing flirty or feminine, but I hope you'll agree, its still FUN!

I recently picked up You Say Its Your Birthday from The Cat's Pajamas. I so seriously love these mischievous little penguins!

I stamped this happy little guy with Brilliance Ink, and then set him aside to dry. I stamped him a second time so that I could trim out the balloon for a little "out of the box" treatment.

Using an oval nestie, I diecut the image, then sponged all around the frame while it was still nested inside the die. Lastly, I trimmed out the extra balloon and adhered it right in place.

Is it me, or is that sentiment just perfect? I love it!

I hope you'll freshen up your desktop and play along in this week's TCP Tuesday Challenge. For those of you feeling a little rusty on the rules, or for anyone who hasn't played along here goes:

Here are the deets for TCP Tuesday.
1. Each a week one of The Cat’s Pajamas DT members will host a challenge.
