Thank you

Hi all. I'm playing in the Paper Players 700th challenge today which is a sketch.  This is the card that almost wasn't.  I can't tell you how many mistakes I made while doing this. My inner Virgo was having a fit today - thankfully, it all came together in the end.

The leaf dies are from Gina K Designs. I cut them out of white cardstock and colored them with the BG7.3 Olo marker. Thankfully, I had some solid designer paper that closely matched the marker color. I used Linen cardstock from Papertrey, Ink for the card base, which is top-folded.  The thank you sentiment is from MFT and the circle and rectangle stitched dot dies are from Jillian Vance Designs.

The solid leaf is inside the card, which you can see through the circle aperture on the front.  

Thanks for stopping by.

Birthday Hydrangea TFC#93

Hello everyone. Here is your mid-month reminder about the current challenge going on over at The Flower Challenge blog.

 Here is another card that I created for the current challenge.

 

The Hydrangea layering dies are from Honey Bee Stamps. Hydrangeas are one of my favorite flowers and when this set came out, I jumped on it. So fun to work with.

Mixing it up

Hello. Playing in the Freshly Made Sketch challenge today with a mixed media thanks card. 

I cut and inked up some worn and weathered designer paper from creative expressions to go with the sketch. I added a bit of script stamping to the grey panel and decided it needed some heat embossing to stand out a bit more. The "thanks" die is from Spellbinders. 

Rub on stitching from 49 and market is used along the left panel and lastly, added a medallion cut out for further interest (TH stamp). Added some black ink splatters, just because I could.  

Have a great weekend and thanks for stopping in.

Congrats - SSC339

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

The balloon background stamp is from Hero Arts. I heat embossed it in white, spritzed it with a blue mica spray (came in the HA kit) then used Tim Holtz mica sprays to water color in the colors from the inspiration photo below.  

The die is also from Hero Arts. I used vellum for the shadow and plain white for the congrats!

Merry Christmas to you and yours

Hello. Playing in this week's Freshly Made Sketches challenge today.

The sentiment stamps are from Impress cards and crafts. I stamped them in versamark and heat embossed them in silver.  The snowflakes are from Echo Park and cut out of Tim Holtz Idea-ology silver sparkle cardstock. The embossing folder is an oldie but goodie from Provo Craft/Cuttlebug.  I accidently used the debossed side and then decided it looked pretty darn good behind the snowflake cuts outs, and left it. 

Thanks for stopping by.
