DT INk Clean & Simple


Kindred Stamps Emotional Roller Coaster, Copics



It's time for a new challenge at INkspirational!


This time it's the word prompt Clean & Simple with an Optional Twist E.



Optional Twist: E is for...Easter, evening, engagement...


Lots of masking for this one!


My optional "E" is for the name of the stamp set from Kindred Stamps: Emotional Roller Coaster.


Please join us with your unique take!


(We’d love to see your clean and simple creations shine in more than one place!  If you’re playing along with our Inkspirational challenge, why not also link up your card at the AAA Card Challenge? Their new theme of “E stands for…” pairs perfectly with our optional twist (think Easter, eggs, envelopes, engagement, etc!). Their challenge begins on Sunday!


 Sharing in both challenges is a wonderful way to share your creativity with an even wider community. Happy crafting!)

Celebrate Pop Up Boardwalks

Concord & 9th Boardwalk Stacks/Pop-Out Stacks Base
 


My eldest turned 30 ya'll!


I wanted to make a BIG card celebration which challenged me to give Concord & 9th Boardwalk Stacks (and Pop-Out Stacks) a try.


I did some homework and double checked the site multiple times to see what layers on what.  I printed it out too, because then I could lay it beside my project as I went.


SO FUN.


My husband and daughter both said "I can't believe you made this!".


YAY!!


I think every creator wants that reaction. ;)

CAS Thank You Card Set




 Pooh stickers, Pretty Pink Posh Eyelet Circles & Stitched Hexagon dies, Lawn Fawn Magic Iris Sunflower Add-On die, Simon Says Stamp Stitched Dress Up Tag dies, The Greetery Bow Bookmark die (top portion only)


Ya'll I've been super busy and I'm coming up for air!!!


My youngest is expecting and we had a lovely shower Sunday to celebrate.


I got busy with thank you cards this week and managed to whip up 50 so far (i know right!!!).


I went with various CAS designs to accommodate these Pooh stickers I thought I was using on favors.


However, when the numbers started rising (men were included), I bought honeycomb soap favors that I just had to assemble with the bags and tag included (it was for my sanity, you understand ;)).


 I wanted to make sure these stickers got used, so I brought out some fun dies (listed under the photo...you can make out what's what- I hope!) to showcase the stickers.


done (check) and done (check).


whew!








Thank you for your sweet visit today~

DT INk Use Stencils Optional Plaid



The Ton Stamps Mass Tags dies/Rose Tags stencils, Tim Holtz Layering Stencil Plaid, Spellbinders Bouquet of Flowers bow, Avery Elle Double Stitched Rectangle die



It's time for a new challenge at INkspirational!


This time the prompt is Use Stencils with the option of Plaid.





 
I had used birthday money to purchase these mass tags and rose stencils from The Ton, and had to play in several colors.

I love that the tags stay attached, so that they can stay together until I need one!





Found my plaid stencil and layered one up for this challenge!
