Postage Gardening Rust & Green
Nailed It
This card was just for fun, because look at this cute image from Brutus Monroe's Pet Parlor!
Brutus Monroe Pet Parlor, The Ton Stamps Sunflower, Whimsy Stamps Jungle Frame, Copics
I added a blue sunflower I had in my stash (it's from The Ton), and framed with Whimsy Stamps Jungle Frame (I wish I had all their frames).

DT INkspirational Mood Board
It's time for a new challenge at INkspirational!
Hero Arts (HA+RT) Center Stage/Center Stage Crowd, Fancy Pants Beachside Boardwalk Ephemera, Erin Lee Creative Fishing Net Die
There's a Mood Board for our challenge, and there are so many ways you can take it!
I was drawn to the vellum-shade orange, so I pulled out from my stash I picked up forever ago (multicolor vellum pack from Amazon).
You can see it behind the fishnet die cut from Erin Lee Creative.
It's an odd shape of color, and I just kind of grabbed what was on my desk that went with the other colors here
(behind the fishnet~ anything goes, am I right?!).
Join us with your unique creation~

DT INkspirational Designer's Choice Two or More Companies
It's my Designer Choice turn at INkspirational!
Many times I'll feature more than two companies, because I purchase products with playtime in mind.
I fall in love with so many releases, and it's nice to have various companies that compliment each other.
This card came together for my daughter's client that needed encouragement.
Since my daughter cleans homes, I thought this would be a lovely focal point.
Please visit our challenge blog for inspiration and then link up your unique creation!

DT INk Use Stencil
The Stamp Market Pet Collar and Paw Print dies, Picket Fence Studios Stella Puppy sentiment and white paste, Brutus Monroe Pastel Deco patterned paper
It's time for a new challenge at INkspirational~
The challenge is use stencils with the option of paste, so I used a free paste I had gotten with my Picket Fence order once.
It's sparkly and kind of fuzzy, so I paired it with a stencil I made out of the paw print die from The Stamp Market.
I cut the paw from copy paper and carefully scraped the paste into the paw, and cut the paw out (after it was dry, of course!).
Please join us with your unique creation!

DT INkspirational Spotlight Technique
Unity Stamps What the Cluck, Pretty Pink Posh Sentiment dies, Avery Elle Double Pierced Rectangles, Copic Markers
It's time for a new challenge at INkspirational!
This time it's Pia's choice, and she prompted us with the Spotlight Technique.
I tried to keep it simple (many times simple gets it done).
I grabbed the nearest remnant and placed it over this stamped image I had to have (leftover framing from a sentiment die).
I then colored with Copics within the framing.
I'm also submitting this to
Simon Says (Wednesday): Use Patterned Paper
(which I kept in mind when adding a patterned paper background).
