The Great Outdoors

 Hello, Judy Woodland and Vicki Dutcher here, and it's time for a new Mod Squad Challenge.  

CHALLENGE:

Our challenge for you this week is to make a card featuring The Great Outdoors. This can be anything from a critter who lives outside to a beautiful outdoor scene. And it can be any season.....all four are accepted.

***** As Donna mentioned last week, there is one new rule change, you may enter our Challenge up to 3 times, with a new unique project each time. *****

This week our SPONSOR is the wonderful stamp company  

Kitchen Sink Stamps

 

Kitchen Sink Stamps offers us a discount CODE: ModSquad15.

  These stamps are amazing. Most have a multi-stamp feature that lets you get great detail in your images using several colors. There is real dimension with a 3-D effect! And one of the best features of this stamp company is that there are color recipes for most of the multi-step stamps, so you don't have to guess what colors to use. There are even alternative colors if you don't have the inks that are suggested. Maria from Kitchen Sink Stamps is a member of our Mod Squad Challenge Facebook Group so feel free to say Hi or ask any questions.

THE PRIZE

$25 GIFT CERTIFICATE to the store. 

You can pick your own goodies and there are lots of choices!

Here is a sample for you:

This card was made using the fabulous new stamp set, just released last month, called Multi Step Icy Pond. All I could think of was a secluded pond where two skaters are enjoying a crisp winter afternoon. I used a product called Crackle Accents by Ranger to give the pond some dimension.

Here's a closer look:
