True love lasts forever

Hello. For world card making day, I decided to join the sketch challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches.  I do have some holiday cards in the works but wanted to share new stamp instead.

The leaf and sentiment stamps are from Unity.  I used eucalyptus and juniper ink from Simon Says Stamp on the leaf.  I found the gingham and a matching cardstock in my stash. The blanket stitch square die is from Pink Fresh Studio.

Thanks for stopping by.

It's your day, Celebrate!

Hello.  I found some time today to play in this week's Freshly Made Sketch.  

I used the Beyond Measure pink fresh studio stamp, stencil and die to make this. I did cut it down to fit the sketch. The sentiment is from Waffle flower sweet birthday sentiment stamps. Added some self-adhesive black pearls from Hero Arts to the center of the flowers and smaller ones around the flower spray.  The blanket stitch cover die is also from Pink fresh studio, but the circle one is from Craft addiction UK.

Thanks for stopping by.

Happiest of birthdays - SSC395

Hello and welcome back to another challenge over at Sunday Stamps.  We have another sketch challenge for you today.

The background is an embossing folder from Stampin Up!  I paired it with the eucalyptus die cuts and a birthday sentiment form The Stamp Market.  I used a length of sticky back cork ribbon for the strip. It's super fragile too.  Self-adhesive pearls complete the card. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Sending a little note

Hello. I'm playing in a few challenges today with this card.

I started out with the sketch over at Freshly Made sketches and went from there.

The sentiment is from The Stamp Market. The stencil is from Echo Park, and I used Simon Says Stamp saturated inks on the majority of the leaves.  The lighter gold ink is from Pink Fresh Studio.  The twine is a little bit high, but still looks pretty good.  Added a bow for whimsy.  The card panel is popped up using foam tape.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hello. I'm playing in The Paper Players #PP800 sketch today.  What a huge milestone!  

The designer paper for this comes from Moda Scrap. I used the square blanket die from Pink Fresh Studio to cut the flower dsp out.  The stripes within the pack worked well for the strip called out in the sketch.  The sentiment is from My Favorite Things.

The dragonfly is cut out using the matte black cardstock from Tim Holtz. I love how rich and deep that black is.  The blue cardstock behind the white panel is from Altenew.

With sympathy - TSOT702

Hello and welcome back to another sketch challenge over at Try a Sketch on Tuesday.

The designer paper is a digital kit from Pink Monarch Prints. I just got a Canon G6020 printer that has the refillable ink cartridges and two ways of putting paper through the printer. It works on all types of paper (even cardstock) and I'm kicking myself for waiting so long to buy it!  Highly recommend.

Leaf die is an old one from Memory Box.

Here is the link to play with the above sketch - hope to see you over there.

ETA:

Double Trouble:

custom 3-2-1 recipe in your card (3 patterned papers, 2 2-word sentiment and one image).

Sending you a paper hug

Hello. I'm playing in this week's Freshly Made Sketch with this card.

The sentiment is from The Ton and I stamped it in mocha ink from Simon Says Stamp.  The leaf dies are from Jillian Vance Designs. I used Distress Oxide ink to color them, except for the oak leaf.  That used SSS inks.  

The designer paper in the back is a digital that I've had printed up in my stash.  Added some jute ribbon on top and then stacked the leaves to it with foam tape.  The outline stitched die is and old one from My Favorite Things.

Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Birthday - SSC392

Hello!  We have a new sketch challenge up over at Sunday Stamps today.  It's a good one!

The leaf stamp is an old red rubber stamp from Rubbernecker stamps (now Brass & Bliss). I used Eucalyptus ink from C&9 to stamp it onto a card base.  The cardstock behind the image is also from C&9 and it matches the ink.  The birthday stamp is Globeland off of Amazon.
