Ink Pads Week Challenge

Are you ready for the weekend?  Hope you've got some fun plans ahead and Happy Fourth to all our US friends!  It's time to announce the winner of last week's Thickers Accents challenge... congratulations goes out to Mahlin for her pretty layout!
Hope you'll give this week's challenge a try for a chance to win a set of our new Ink Pads! 

We want to see how you're going to use those Ink Pads, so show off your stamping skills.

1. The layout or card must be posted to an online gallery or blog with American Crafts in your supply list.

2.  You must leave a comment on this blog post with a link to your card or layout online.  You also must fill in your email address when posting your comment on this blog post.

3. Layouts and links must be posted by midnight PST on Thursday, July 8st.

Here's one more layout for inspiration from talented Design Team member Danielle...
Supplies: 8.5 x 11 Cardstock white (71273) - AC cardstock, Black Pigment Ink (59500) - AC Stamping Ink, Wave Pigment Ink (59503) - AC Stamping Ink, Cranberry Pigment Ink (59517) - AC Stamping Ink, Denium Pigment Ink (59502) - AC Stamping Ink, Kahuna Kiwi Paper (35116) - Heat wave, Citrus Chill paper (35112) - Heat wave, Pretty Papaya paper (35109) - Heat wave, Lucky Lime paper (35106) - Heat wave, Bliss Coffee (53030) - AC Thickers, Wake Accents Rub-ons (43380) - AC Minimarks

Danielle says: "This is a page about my son, I used that same beach towel as a little girl! I love to get the outside of my layout a little scuffed up with black ink to give it a graphic/grungy feel. I used my library date stamp with several fun colors to accent the Heat wave paper. This stamping ink is juicy, you won't have any problems inking up your stamps or your paper! And it comes in such beautiful colors that coordinate perfectly with American crafts paper, cardstock or embellishments--I love that! I don't want to think too hard about things, especially a laid back page about the beach."

We could all use a nice and laid back page once in a while.  Hope you're all able to get some scrapping done and enjoy the weekend!

Had a blast working on this card and off to make another AC project!!!

Thanks for the opportunity!

Well I did an altered item for this challenge, so I hope that's OK! I was inspired by the Abode line of stamps, and I used a 7 gypsies tray. Each section of the tray reminded me of a doll house, so I used the Abode stamps to make some little rooms. I also used Zing embossing powder and papers from the Metropolitan line.
