It's a good day - TSOT#678

Hi, and welcome back to a new sketch challenge over at Try a Sketch on Tuesday.

Ok - this one needs a bit of explaining.  The main panel of this card is made using a napkin and some plastic wrap.  You know the technique of ironing the napkins onto a piece of cardstock by melting plastic wrap between the two with an iron.  Yep, this is that technique.  I told you I'd made a few! ;-)

The label die is from Pretty Pink Posh, and the sentiment is from Sizzix stamps.  I have so many dragonfly dies in my stash that I cannot remember who makes them anymore.  

Hope you're feeling better soon

Hello. I'm playing in the Just Add Ink challenge to choose two.  It's between die cut, flower, and ribbon.  Also adding this to the Tic-Tac-Toe challenge.  

The tag is cut from fabric, and I used a purple flower rub-on to decorate it.  I colored the ribbon with a Copic marker to match the colors in the flowers.  The sentiment is from Pretty Pink Posh, and it's stamped in Versafine ink. 

Stitch dot rectangle dies are from Jillian Vance Designs.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hello and Welcome to another Fusion Card Challenge, where you can use the sketch or the photo or both. Here is what I did with it.

 

I was inspired by a few things within the photo. The Laugh decor photo, the peonies and the color of the walls. So I combined them into the sketch. Pink peonies stamps, stencils and dies are from Pretty Pink Posh. Sentiment is from Print works.

Chalk it up!

Hello! It's my turn to create a project of the week over at The House That Stamps Built. I'm going old school for this one and I dug out my Chalks! Yes, had to dust them off! What fun, though!

I used Versamark ink to stamp the solid flowers randomly down a sheet of cardstock. Then I took the little pom pom that came with the set of chalks to color on the yellow. I used a pouncing method to daub on the color so that I didn't smear the ink.  I decided to cut the border with a stitched scalloped die and layered it in black.  Added some black Nuvo drops to the centers to complete them. Yellow and black is such a striking color combo, that I decided to go with it on the body of the card by adding a layer of yellow gingham designer paper. Added the sentiment and it's ready for the mail.

Crocus - Thinking of you

Hi everyone. It's time for another challenge over at The House That Stamps Built. This week our challenge is the use the following graphic.

I went with dew drops, pastel colors and dimension.

Crocus are colored with Copic markers. I used a scalloped border die to cut them out and then popped them up on the pastel yellow cardstock using foam tape. Sentiment is also popped up. Sadly, my crocus are all done blooming now. They were so pretty, but never last long enough.

Holiday stenciling

Hi all. Playing along with the 30 day coloring challenge today. I'm behind a couple of days, I think. But here is my take on the challenge using stencils.

I used the newest stencil from Pretty Pink Posh and distress inks. I did break out my cosmetic brushes to color this. I ended up masking off the circles/berries and coming back and doing them after the leaves. I created the vellum band and heat embossed the season greetings using platinum embossing powder from Hero Arts. The sentiment is from Purple Onion Designs.

Pretty in pink

Hello. Playing in the CAS(e) this sketch challenge today.

Flower and leaf stamps are from Pretty Pink Posh. Colored with picked raspberry distress oxide inks after I heat embossed them.  Added a few white dots using a gel pen for some added dimension. The sentiment is from Avery Elle.

The swiss dots designer paper is from lasting impressions. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

You're such an inspiration
