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

 Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

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!

A Toast To Your Retirement! ~ GDP548


I made this fun card for a gal who is retiring from a lifetime of cooking.  She's cooked at hospitals and nursing homes and most recently she was the most awesome cook at our local school.  She's a fun gal and I knew she'd appreciate the puns!
I used the most awesome inspiration in Kim Fee's card from Global Design Project's Case the Designer Challenge.  I love Kim's work.

Paper: Black, Strawberry Slush, Daffodil Delight, Beautifully Penned DSP
