Simple things - SSC347

Hello and welcome to another challenge over at Sunday Stamps.  Here is what I made using the inspiration color prompt photo.

 


 I decided to create a specimen tag using some dried lavender for this color prompt challenge.  The purples called out to me for some reason. 

I randomly stamped the lavender on the purple card base using an older stamp from Technique Tuesdays greenhouse society line.  I used some of that fantastic cello tape from Tim Holtz to hold down the lavender. I then stamped some script onto the white tag using shaded lilac oxide ink. Added some rub-ons and fibers that matched the cardstock and called it good.

Season's Greetings

Hello. I'm playing in the clean and simple challenge of Tag, you're it over at The Paper Players today.

I upcycled a Lucky Brands tag from a pair of purchased jeans.








The snowflake die is from Echo Park. The sentiment is from Papertrey, Ink and I used an old 5 x 7 Provo Craft snowflake embossing folder for the background.  

I used a frost spritz spray on the snowflakes and in real life they are so sparkly, but hard to capture on camera. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Celebrate - SSC346

Hello and welcome to another challenge over at Sunday Stamps.  I designed the sketch for our challenge this time based on this card.



I used Simon Says Stamp saturated inks and the peony buds and blossoms stencil from Shawn Petite.  Cut it apart, layered it with black cardstock, and then placed it onto an embossed panel.  The celebrate word die is from Tim Holtz Sizzix. 

 


There are a lot of possibilities with this sketch, Link up here. Sunday Stamps

Start each day



I used the leaf 3D embossing folder from Tim Holtz and then added some paper piercing. I had an extra leaf left over from the first card I made and used it here.  Add the sentiment from TH Stampers Anonymous and a few gold pearls.  The brown gingham ribbon was found in my ribbon stash. I love how it works here.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hello

Hi everyone. I'm participating in the sketch challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches and also adding this to the leaves challenge over at Just Us Girls.


The tag die is from Gummiapan. I made a background using distress inks and heavy-weight mixed media paper to create some fall leaf die cuts.  The dies are from Lawn Fawn.  The designer paper is from Moda Scrap. I ended up spritzing the leaves with some distress spritz and you can see it on the photo below, as it doesn't always photograph well.


Thanks for stopping by.
