Congratulations In Color ~ HSS493

Hello friends!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments Color Challenge for July, which is a color combo that I got to choose!  It's a beautiful color trio featuring two of our new In-Colors: Golden Glow and Barely Blush.  I thought they paired nicely with Lost Lagoon.  

I let all the patterned paper do the heavy lifting on this card!  Everything except the sentiment and the ribbon is DSP!  I colored the flowers from the Artisan Sketched Garden DSP and fussy cut them out.  I used my ink pads and blender pens to swipe on the color for the Golden Glow flowers and the Lost Lagoon leaves.  I used my Barely Blush Blends to color in the others.

Everything sits on a background of Shimmering Stripes Specialty Paper.  I thought the sparkle in the paper added an elegance that could make this a wedding card.  

I'm playing along with Just Us Girls mood board challenge as well. I think these beautiful summery colors fit into that board nicely.

I cased this card from Papertrey Ink.  I wish I knew who made it so I could give them the credit, but I searched with no conclusion.  I loved how special it looked with the extra folded strips of DSP.  

 Here's a list of my supplies.....

Stamps: Wonderful Thoughts

Ink: Barely Blush blends, Golden Glow, Lost Lagoon

Paper: White, In-Color DSP, Artisan Sketched Garden DSP, Shimmering Stripes Specialty Paper, Beautiful Ordinary Life DSP, Lost Lagoon

Accessories: White EP, Silver & White ribbon

Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

Hello Lovely Summer ~ HSS492, TTTC296

Hello friends!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments Mood Board Challenge!  I was inspired by the stripes, dots, gold accents, and pink flowers. Inspiration photos are among my favorite challenges to play along with and this one definitely has so many options to choose from! I'm so excited to see what everyone come up with, so please play along with us! 

I'm also playing along with Tic Tac Toe Challenge going down the right side using Summer Colors, Border, and Stencil.  My stencil is obviously the flower from Layers of Beauty.  For the border, I used my Stitched With Whimsey die, and of course all shades of pink are summery colors.  

This is a CASE of a card I made back in 2024.  I came across the card and decided I wanted to make a re-do with this fabulous DSP from Artisan Sketched Garden and use the wonderful pink colors from the inspiration photo. 

 

Here's a list of my supplies.....

Stamps: Layers of Beauty, Sweet Blooms

Ink: Pretty in Pink, Strawberry Slush, Melon Mambo, Peaceful Pine, Memento Black, Versamark

Paper: Artisan Sketched Garden DSP, Strawberry Slush, Black, White, Gold Glimmer

Accessories: Stitched with Whimsey die, Sweet Blooms die, Brushed Brass Butterflies, Gold Glitter EP

Summery Flower Pot Sketch ~ HSS491, CI211

Hello friends!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments Sketch Challenge #491.  I got to design the sketch this month.  I think this will be a fun one for all the fabulous DSP there's available right now!  

I also used the color combo from Colour Inkspiration #211 of Bubble Bath, Hydrangea Hue, Peaceful Pine, and Misty Moonlight.  I knew they'd be a pretty flower combo, so I pulled out my retired County Flowers set.  I just love this set.  It's a pleasure to color and has some lovely images and coordinating dies.  I also used a retired die called Stitched Lace.  All DSP I used it current.  

Here's a list of my supplies.....

Stamps: Country Flowers

Ink: Bubble Bath, Hydrangea Hue, Peaceful Pine, and Misty Moonlight Blends

Paper: Gingham Gallery DSP, Everyday Essentials DSP, White, Misty Moonlight

Accessories: County Flowers dies, Stitched lace die, Misty Moonlight/white/silver twine, Riverside Irregular Pearls

Green Flora ~ TGIF581

Hello friends!  Today's card is for TGIF Challenges sketch #581.  I flipped the sketch on it's side and took some poetic license by clustering images for the main focal circle element.  Honestly, many of these items were cast offs or extras from other cards I've made.  I like when I can make my scraps come together in a card!

Here's a list of my supplies.....

Stamps: Boutique Blossoms, Country Flowers 

Ink: Garden Green, Memento Black

Paper: Garden Green double sided, Crumb Cake, Black, Artisan Sketched Garden DSP, Irresistible Designs Specialty Paper

Accessories: Boutique Blossoms dies, Gilded Wings Accents, Fern EF, White EP, White with Gold ribbon, Brushed Brass Butterflies

Polka Dot Cutest Crew ~ GDP551

Hello friends!  Today's card is for Global Design Project Challenge #551: Animal Theme.

I was sorting through all my old designer papers the other day and pulled out the large polka dot pattern and found a smaller polka dot to coordinate.  I also had some Pretty in Pink paper laying out and I decided to pair it with the brand new In Color of Barely Blush.  I know Pretty in Pink is retired, but I just can't let it go yet.  In fact, I don't think I ever will!  It's one of my very favorite pinks and I think it looks pretty fantastic with Barely Blush.  

I also wanted to do something cutsie to go with the fun polka dots, so I pulled out my brand new Cutest Crew.  

Here's a list of my supplies....

Stamps: Cutest Crew, Everyday Arches, Happiest Day

Ink: Memento, Versa Mark; Light & Dark Daffodil Delight, Smokey Slate, Pretty in Pink, and Barely Blush Blends

Paper: Retired DSP (polka dots), Pretty In Pink, Barely Blush, White

Accessories: Glossy Dots, Everyday Arches dies, Cutest Crew dies, White EP

Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!
