DT INk Leftovers

Hero Arts Classic Casserole dies,  Honey Bee Stamps Friendship Ladder Sentiment

 It's time for a new INk challenge and this time the prompt is "Leftovers".

Repurpose your 'scrappy bits' - papers, ephemera, etc.

I had this mini panel finished (with "leftovers" casserole and sentiment) as a mini notecard that I thought I'd tuck into a present or plant.

I loved the combo and didn't want to lose the dishes or sentiment in my large stack of leftovers.

I decided to trim the card and place it on a bigger one for this challenge!

Simon Says (Monday): Masculine

Simon Says (Wednesday): Add a Sentiment

I wanted a gentle encouragement card, reminding the recipient of God's daily grace.

 I felt led to send this during a painful transition...I had to send something!

DT INk Visual Prompt

 

The Ton Stamps Easy Expressions, My Favorite Things (no longer in business) Always Bring a Smile , Nuvo Drops

It's time for a new challenge at INkspirational!

This time it's an adorable visual prompt, from which I pulled mushrooms and a woodland scene.

It's a stamp set that I have been itching to play with, and I was motivated because I needed a sweet birthday card for a 4 year old.

I picked soft colors to experiment with and added a few Nuvo Drops.

Pottery Brown and Blues

Hero Arts Retro Kitchen, My Favorite Things Stamps Watercolor Wash stencil/Wonky Stitched Circles, The Stamp Market Sweet Scallop A2 Card

I had this scalloped card already cut and I used MFT watercolor wash stencil to create a background for these dishes and sentiment I had in my extras pile.

The following challenges inspire me and motivate me to create and post!!!

May WoodBlock Wednesday

Stampin Up 2003 Wooden Stamps & Just for Fun 1996-227 Grid Wooden stamp, My Favorite Things Square frame dies

I'm excited I get to use these wooden stamps for Amy's Woodblock Wednesday Challenge!

They were all in a bundle (there were many more in that pile too) that were being sold at a thrift store.

I couldn't resist! 

Smaller stamps are Stampin Up and the larger grid was titled Just for Fun (1996-2007).

The grid stamp really helped me line up the smaller ones!

Thank you for your sweet visit~

DT INk Prompt For the Guys

 

The Ton Stamps Golf Course Layering Stamps/Golf Therapy Stamps and dies, Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Sentiment Strip

Our new challenge at INk is FOR THE GUYS!

I splurged with birthday money and invested on these gorgeous stamp sets from The Ton.

The golf course layering stamps are really fun to play with and I was able to get a card done for hubby! I didn't need the dies this time around (in case I messed up on the layering of ground, ocean and sky borders)..but I got them just in case!

I can't wait to make more (now that I've had a little practice).  The results are truly realistic looking.

Please join us with your masculine take this time around~
