Wishing you a beautiful day

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


The bicycle dies are from Brass and Bliss. The cloud stencil is from A colorful life designs and the trees, bushes and hill stencil is from Simon Says Stamp.  I also used their inks to blend through the stencils.

I sent this off to a Co-workers wife who is a SU demonstrator, as a thank you. She recently made up a bunch of card kits that were handed out to us during our last meeting.  Such a sweet gesture and much appreciated.

Thanks for stopping by.

Let it bee

Hi. I decided to play with this week's Freshly Made Sketch again and came up with this.


I tore my stamps apart looking for a specific stamp and die set for the bee, and frustratingly, never found it.  Ended up fussy cutting this one from Recollections.  I added color using Copic markers and the wings have sparkle spritz on them.

The sentiment is from Creative Expressions, and the die is from Brass & Bliss. I had a yellow background already created in my background stash, so added that behind the dots.  The line of dots that is supposed to resemble the flight of the bee is done using a sewing tracing wheel in black ink. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Just a note

Hello. I'm playing in the Freshly Made Sketch challenge today with this card.


The tag die is from Brass and Bliss which I used it to cut out a book page.  The stencil is from Tim Holtz, it's the mini one #THMS070.  I used it with texture paste on the card base and the tag, then also used it to emboss the horizontal panel behind the tag. The ribbon on the tag was colored using the BG7.3 marker from Olo, which matched fairly well.  The distress spray ink on the tag is stormy sky. 

Thanks for stopping by.

A merry little Christmas to you - SSC375

Hello and welcome back to another challenge over at Sunday Stamps.  This time we have a color palette prompt for your inspiration.



I just purchased this wonderful paper pack from Brass & Bliss and one of the papers worked well with the colors below.  

I added a bit of snowflake glitter and mica from Ranger (TH) to the top and bottom snowflakes. The dies are from My Favorite Things and the middle snowflake die is from Simon Says Stamp.





Thanks for stopping by.

Thanks

Hi everyone. I spent yesterday at the Stamp and Scrapbook Expo and spent way too much money. However, here is one of the stamp and stencil sets I purchased from The Ton.



I used color fuse inks from Brass and Bliss with the stencil first, then stamped over it with the outline stamp.  The thanks sentiment is part of the set.

I'm entering this into the following challenge.
