Mountain Air Father's Day ~ CCMC665, CTC319


Hello stampers!  Today's card is for Create with Connie and Mary's sketch challenge.  I also used Casing The Catty's embossing challenge.  I stamped my card with Mountain Air in Misty Moonlight, Cinnamon Cider, and Just Jade and then embossed the main panel with Evergreen Forest EF.  I also embossed the Night of Navy background panel with the same folder.  After embossing I brushed it with some Night of Navy ink to enhance the trees.




Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

Forever Fern Loved ~ CCMC664, FabFri213


Hey there stampers!  Today's card is for Create with Connie and Mary's new color challenge featuring Night of Navy, Bumble Bee, and Flirty Flamingo.  I just love these colors together!  I knew I wanted to use the Bumble Bee DSP for Playful Patterns and felt like it was kinda elegant, so I chose Forever Fern.  I thing they look wonderful in these colors.  I used the layout from Fab Friday 213.

Polished Pink Posies ~ HSS364, GDP292


Hey stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments May Inspiration Challenge.  I was inspired by the flowers and the bright pink, plus the gold in the picture with the tumbler.  I couldn't wait to try out the new In Color of Polished Pink.  I think I'll be using this pink a lot!  I really like this shade.  I also used the new Soft Succulent for my leaves, but in hind site, I wish I had used something a little more bright.  The colors on this turned out kind of soft and subtle, so I decided to make it a wedding card and put a Congratulations sentiment on it.
I always like to try and find another challenge or two that could fit with the theme of my card and this time I found Global Design Projects Case the Designer challenge.  I like the layout of the card and was happy to CASE it!

Coffee and Cookies ~ CCMC663, JUGS583


Today's card is for the new sketch at Create with Connie and Mary.  I used the fun set Nothing's Better Than and the matching dies called I Love You More Than.  I also used a couple strips of the new DSP called Pattern Party.  It's got SO MANY colors and patterns, plus black and white!  The possibilities are endless here!  It's available as a hostess pick when you host a party or purchase $250 in products.  
I used the paper as my jumping off point for colors in this card.  I used Poppy Parade, Bermuda Bay, and Granny Apple Green.
I'm entering my card into the Layers Trend Week challenge at Just Us Girls.  I think my card definitely qualifies!

Forever Fern Sympathy ~ CCMC662, SSC256


Hello there!  Today's card is for Create with Connie and Mary's first color challenge for May.  We are using Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, and a new In Color: Soft Succulent.  
I have to confess that I had seen a few other cards around pinterest using this set with the background sponging and embossing.  I used those cards as inspiration and added in the flowers from Pretty Perennials, leaves from Perennial Petals dies, and the sentiment from Elegantly Said.  
They sketch from Sunday Stamps was the perfect match for my layout!

Happy Colors ~ HSS363


Hello there stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments color challenge for May.  These colors are just SO HAPPY, so why not use a set with the word HAPPY in it!  Plus, there isn't much time left before this fun set retires.....how sad!  I love Pretty Perennials!  I seriously thought it would be a carry over into the 2021-22 catalog, but it didn't make the cut.  Shoot.
For extra texture I embossed my main panel with the Wood Planks EF.
  The Wood Planks embossing folder is also retiring....yet another favorite!  Dang!
I added Crumb Cake as a neutral to complete my card.
