Stenciled Pansy Duo

The Ton Stamps Bright Pansies Clusters Layering Stencils, Spellbinders Glimmer Plates Heart Melt Sentiments/Mini Everyday Sentiments, embossing folders, Tonic Studios Shimmer Cardstock


I can't pick a fave from these two versions using The Ton Stamps Bright Pansies Clusters Layering stencils.

Both use the stencil, a Spellbinders Glimmer Plate sentiment, and an embossing folder.

When I've got my stencil supplies out...I try to make a few color variations.

I went with fall colors with the first being a tad more neutral.





This second card is using the colors from the last Color Throwdown.

:(



I feel I've been playing there (when I could) since I first started this blog journey.

I've always been fascinated by the colors they've come up with!

Here's one last Hoorah~

DT INkspirational Mood Board




Unity Stamps Deckle and Stitches Nesting dies, Honey Bee Stamps Alice's Gingerbread Lane tree, Hero Arts Snowflake, The Stamp Market Brr Baby sentiment, tag die



It's time for a new challenge at INkspirational!

This time is a fun mood board.








So many ways to go with this and I picked the tree tag as my inspiration.

I like movement and I like angles, so I doubled up on the background by cutting out another one (after deciding the angle I wanted it to have, I removed the red base before cutting the grey).






Please join us with your unique take!

DT INk Knitted



Hero Arts Classic Casserole, The Greetery Hearts at Home (sweater, sentiment), The Ton Stamps Autumn Foliage


It's time for a new challenge at INkspirational! 


The prompt is knitted!


I have really cute sweater die in my stash, so I made a card with a removable paper clip bookmark. ;)


I finished the card behind the sweater, so it doesn't look incomplete.




We are looking forward to seeing your unique creations 

(and perhaps it will enable me to see what knitted products are out there, should I want to add it to my wishlist ;) ).



 

I'm also submitting to Inspired By Challenge




Thank you for your sweet visit!

The Greetery Bottled Up, La-La Land Crafts In the City Paper Pack (strip trimmed from the front of the card)



I created this for a friend who recently had a birthday.

She recently acquired leisure property near a big city...so I went with this vibe.

Hey, Do You Believe?




This Calls for Confetti Love Bigfoot Die, Pretty Pink Posh Sentiment Strip dies, La-La Land Crafts In the Forest


Backstory time...my husband asked me to create this card for a coworker that had a funny story.


He was on the side of the road changing a flat tire (taking a long time) when he sensed someone standing over him.


A voice said over his shoulder, "What are you doing?".


Then he answered "What do you think I'm doing?".


The last thing he heard was "Hey, do you believe in Bigfoot?".

I don't know his friend's reply, but when he turned around...the person disappeared. HA!


(ikr...what?! No words are needed at this point. People are wildin' out there ya'll!!!!)



I kid you not, this was the story my husband shared when he saw that I had a bigfoot die (and was working on this card).


"Please would you make a card for my coworker?". 


Well, yes I did. ;)


I got my hands on some gorgeous packs of scenery patterned paper packs and this particular scene is perfect for Bigfoot.


The sentiment was typed out and printed on cardstock and cut with Pretty Pink Posh's sentiment strip.

City Team Colors




Simon Says Stamp Festive Balloons, The Greetery Market Place Mini dies, My Favorite Things (out of business) cloud stencil, stickers for the recipient's name



This was created for my son-in-law.


I centered these never-been-used/but still sticks stickers to spell out his name (in his team colors) between these new fun buildings ;).


Whilst looking for "confetti" I felt the Lord's creative hand on me to use the window die from one of the buildings!


Cut in silver...it sparkles and falls like confetti.


This balloon set was a birthday incentive gift from Simon Says Stamp and it's one of my FAVE.


The images and sentiments go with any birthday card!
