TSOT 609 - teal butterfly

Hello everyone. It’s time for a new sketch challenge over at Try Stamping On Tuesdays.

The designer paper is from Bazzill Basics that I have been hoarding forever! Decided to put it to use on the sketch below. By the way, the secondary theme for this sketch is Butterflies. I used one from My Favorite Things and colored it with Copic's to match the dsp.  

Here is the sketch for you to use as inspiration.

Mixed media card

Hello. Playing in the sketch challenge over at The Paper Players today.

I've had this snippet in my stash from a mixed-media play session that I finally put to use on this card.

I used the cling wrap watercolor smooch technique with the blue. Then added a layer of embossing paste through a stencil. A script background stamp and splatter is added to the mix to finish off the card panel. The dragonfly is a die that I cut out - added some Nuvo silver gilding flakes to it and stuck it on its shadow. The shadow was done by adding some blue perfect pearl to it. It sparkles in real life. 

I really like how this turned out.  Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Birthday - One layer card

Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge over at Less Is More.

 

The flower stamp is from Impress Cards and crafts. The birthday sentiment is from Jaded Blossom. 

Here is the cue card.

 

Please visit the Simply Less is More BLOG to see what wonderful creations the design team has come up with.

ETA: I'm also adding this into the Retro Rubber challenge of anything goes. The stamp I used is a combo stamp (the grass is the main stamp and the flower is on one end of it) and it's at least 10 years old.

 

Thanks for stopping by.

Spread kindness

Hello. It's a D for Dragonfly over at the Alphabet challenge blog.  Thought I'd play along today since dragonflies are my favorite.

The dragonfly die is from The Greetery. I used an alcohol background that I had in my stash to cut up the wings. The spread kindness sentiment is from Mama Elephant. I've already forgotten who makes the lovely 3D embossing folder. Anyway, I highlighted the flowers using some pan pastels. 

Entering this into the following other challenges:

Sending birthday wishes

Hello. Playing in the AAA birthday card challenge today.

The sentiment stamp is from Poppy stamps. I stamped it onto a balloon die cut from MFT stamps (the tag die is also from MFT).  The candles are from the Simon says stamp birthday borders set. I had the green watercolor wash panel in my stash and put it to use on this card. Trying to clean up my stash of  unused card bits.

Hello. Playing in the inspiration board challenge over at Just add ink today.

The big flower spray is from Pink Fresh Studio. Used the stencils and Simon Says Stamp pawsitively saturated ink to color it.  The sentiment is from The Ton.

Background is created using the same ink, and a Script background stamp from My Favorite Things. Heat embossed the script handwriting with clear EP and then blended ink over it. Added some splatter and some rub on's from 49th and Market to complete the card. Might need to make the photo bigger to see the details.
