Feeling Fabulous

Here's a delightful image from Conie Fong, she's called Feeling Fabulous.  She's just opened her brand new Etsy store to sell her beautiful collection of stamps, Conie Fong Art and Design.  She also has a great group on Facebook that you can hang out in and join in great challenges using her wonderful stamps, Conie Fong Art & Design;  Her facebook group currently has details on applying to her design team!

So what do you think of this orange and pink combination?  not two colors you would normally put together huh?  I think they turned out pretty nice.  The die cut shown here comes from Tattered Lace.

do you prefer red rubber stamps, cling mounted or clear stamps?

Beautiful card Holley. I actually like the orange and pink together. Not a choice I would normally see. But it really works well together. The diecut is so pretty too.

New Creations said...

Love the beautiful coloring in this sweet image! This is a great color combo, but i never used. I mostly use clear stamps, easy to use and red rubber stamps too!

gorgeous image and card Holley
the combination of those papers goes well I think because it are soft colours,

Hi holley, I looove your card. I think that the colors you used look really good together.
I looove clear stamps, I actually can't imagine my crafting life without them, it's just awesome that you know excatcly where you will stamp :D

missdarbc@gmail.com said...

I LOVE those colour combinations, and your right, they are not two colours that go together very often....I am not very good at putting "too much" on a card...they always seem to look jammed when I do it...

barbara macaskill said...

What a darling image!! You have colored her beautifully and I love the layout of your card!!
I prefer cling or clear stamps but am not super picky and will use any kind of stamp as long as I like the image!!! LOL
TFS!
PS> I got in touch with bev Jordan and she will be messaging you again. She said she already had but was going to resend it. Hope it goes through this time! :-)

Love this card and the color combo...not a mix I would have thought of! I guess I'm a bit old fashioned as I like wood mounted rubber stamps and my second favorite would be cling stamps. I think the red rubber stamps just give a better impression.

Hi Holley - Beautiful card and I do like the color combination. I like the space savings of clear stamps and cling stamps, but I also use and buy wood mounted stamps when there is an image that I can't live without!

Jennifer Scull said...

such a beautiful card for such a wonderful celebration!

I am getting spoiled on the clear stamps because I can see exactly where I am stamping. but I must say they don't seem to stamp as nicely as the good old red rubber.

Laine Kammeraad said...

Love your card Holley. I also love the pink and orange together. And that tattered lace die is gorgeous. I want to add one to my collection. I love Conie's images. I guess I prefer rubber but also use cling and clear.

Shelley said...

Pink & Orange is fabulous!! Who knew? Love the card and the flower especially. As far as do I prefer red rubber stamps, cling mounted or clear stamps . . . Yes, lol. I use all 3. I need all 3. Both unmounted and mounted, red, clear and on cling. But if I *had* to choose between them I would say red rubber stamps the best images.

Cindy van Oorschot said...

Gorgeous Holley, love the colors,and the embellishments. i love the pink and orange combo, and have used it before, .

jeanchaneyaz said...

Isn't it fun to break the rules for color combos? I love it! As far as stamps go, I like them all. Digital stamps are the best though because of the resizing issue.

Linda Simpson said...

Gorgeous colours and design. Beautiful image.

Rhonda Miller said...

What a sweet card. I love the gorgeous corner die cut.
I prefer clear stamps since I can see through them, but use them all.

Unknown said...

Defiantly not two colours I would put together but they do work well. Lovely image and the corner die and embellishments are great. Hugs Jennifer xx

jordanbev5@yahoo.com said...

Ahhhhhh! This is such a sweet card today!! The little girl image looks so shy and cute, and you colored her perfectly!! Love the sweet die cuts too!!

jordanbev5@yahoo.com said...

Also, am so glad you received my email now!!! Thank you so much!

KT Fit Kitty said...

Yes, I do enjoy this colour combo! To me, any colour goes with pink! Love your cute card! My favourite is clear photopolymer stamps - I've been super impressed with them!

Love, love, love your layout on this card. You sure packed a lot onto this card and it all works very well together. The Tattered Lace die cut is beautiful. Also like the 2 doves. Cute "Feeling Fabulous" focal image. I like all 3: 1st: cling, then rubber and last clear stamps. I use all 3 types.

Gorgeous Holley! Love the color combos. Thanks for sharing this card. Beautiful! Just here to write a comment and not for prizes so you can exclude me from prizes :)

Kathy said...

Love this card...great coloring of that sweet image. I like how you used the die cut and the other embellishments. I like all types of stamp though I find wood mounts harder to use when I am using several stamps or making many identical cards.

Jan said...

Fabulous card Holley. xx Jan

Nikki said...

She is just so sweet looking beautifully coloured Holley hugs Nikki

Nikki said...

It would also be 1st Clear,then Rubber and cling together,wood block last(they take up so much space)

I have no preference as to the type of stamp

Oh my goodness this is just beautiful, I love your colouring and the design is awesome! I love Conie Fong digis and this one looks fabulous, thanks for sharing such a beautiful piece of work to inspire us all! xx

Teresa Godines #6857 said...

Rubber stamps usually leave a very clean image however some of the clear stamps do as well but not as often. I like using both. Love how you embellished you card, TFS

Carrie said...

Your card is beautiful! That Tattered Lace die cut makes a lovely embellishment. I agree the orange and pink colors turned out great on this card.
I use both rubber and clear stamps. I prefer the clear stamps because I can see where they will stamp and place them easier than rubber stamps.

bissecat said...

I like this orange and pink .I like red rubber stamps.

Kate M said...

Absolutely beautiful card and such a fabulous design . Love the image and the colour is one of my particular favourites!

Susan T. said...

I really like the color combination. You've used subtle shades and it really works!

Bunny said...

Clear. That way I can see what I'm doing and they're fairly easy to store.

Andree said...

A wonderful card Holley. I think those shades of orange and pink look fabulous together. The image is just adorable.
I prefer to use clear stamps so I can see what I'm doing with them. They take up less space too xx

Brooke said...

I like these two colors together.I went and checked her site and I love her images.I couldn't pick just one I liked best.
I use to like rubber stamps better but they've improved on the clear stamps which are alot cheaper.

Cindy H. said...

Really nice image!!! I like a lot of her items. I normally use only wood mounted stamps and on some occasions I use the Cling ons

Handmade by Veer said...

Beautiful card! Love it! ..I use all kinds of stamps.love working with them all.xx

Wendy said...

Super card Holley! Love the little doves as an added detail. Xx

Karen said...

Holley this is just beautiful.
I adore the colour scheme I think it worked really, really well. Smiles.xx

Tracy Welham said...

A really pretty card, it's not a colour combo I would have thought of but you're right it works really well.

I prefer clear stamps. Creative Blessings, Tracy x

ike said...

WoWza - now that is one really sweet card - love the image and that gorgeous die cut corner !! :-D

I use mostly cling or clear stamps as I am allergic to Rubber !!!! I do have some red rubber but I have to put cotton or plastic gloves on when I am stamping, and open the windows hahahaha !!!

Gorgeous image and card, Holley. It looks like the colors blend together to create an overall peachy look to it. I like clear stamps as they are easier to place, but mostly I like digitals

SHartl said...

This is just gorgeous and I LOVE the pink and orange combo. It's so feminine and pretty. I like to use rubber and clear stamps the most. I don't use digital stamps at all because my printer is always out of ink, lol!

L. Kent said...

Amazed at how well pink and orange turned out! Love the stamp too.

L. Kent said...

As far as stamps go, I like em all!!!! Geared more toward the clear though.

Sherry said...

Love your card. The colors go really well together. I can't say about the stamps, as I have not used either yet.

grandmalee said...

I'm glad to know that Connie has an Etsy store. I love the orange & pink here, but I'm sure I couldn't make it look as good as you did here.
I'm one of the strange people that doesn't care about how the stamps are made as much as the image itself. Each type of stamp has it's pros & cons & I try to focus more on the pros.

Karenladd said...

Oh, this card is just beautiful and that color combination is gorgeous! The orange is more of a coral and goes wonderfully with the pink and all the lacy die cuts! I love stamps of all kinds but clear stamps are the easiest to place on a project so I have a lot of those. However, rubber cling stamps give a great detailed impression, so I love those too!

UTs Hobby Time said...

So beautifully made. Love the color combo and the cute doves. I like both rubber stamps and clear stamps.

Leanne said...

Nice color combo. Cute image

Donna said...

I do like the pink and orange combination. I wouldn't have thought to put hem together either. I like clear stamps but since I got my MISTI I don't mind using any of those stamps. The MIST makes it easy to use any kind of stamp.

Vickie Kertz said...

So cute! I love the lace you use

riliska said...

well, gentle image, good colouring as always - and gentle & good card!!

Stacy H-W said...

Sweet card! I like red rubber stamps that cling.
