Blue Zoo Review ~ DD53 & PPA

Just one more card for Dynamic Duos 53.   I used the sketch from Pals Paper Arts 159, too. 

I have had this zebra embossing folder for over a year and had yet to use it.  I've definitly wanted to try inking the folder with black ink then running it through the Big Shot.  I think it turned out cool and looks really good with Pacific Point.  I kinda purchased the Zoo Review set just because I had these animal print folders (I have a couple other textures too) and figured they would coordinate.  I also used a couple ticket stamps to carry over the zoo theme.  A litte corduroy button adds another element of texture.

 

Here's a list of supplies....

Stamps: Zoo Review, That's the Ticket

Paper: Pacific Point, Black, White

Ink: Pacific Point, Black

Accessories: Pacific Point corduroy button, Black grosgrain ribbon, Ticket punch, Lattice border punch, Zebra print EF, bakers twine

 

Thanks for taking a peek!

Blue & Yellow Baby ~ DD51 & JAI164

This card is for Dynamic Duos 51 & Just Add Ink 164.

The minute I saw the color combo from DD I thought baby boy.  I had also seen some cards floating around the internet using the That's The Ticket set in a similar manner.  To incorporate the tickets into the sketch, I had to use a 5 1/2"x11" card base.  They fit very nicely on it! 

 

 

I'll let you in on a little secret.....the stars were not part of my original plan.  I initially put the bow and corduroy brad on the top of the circle but decided I didn't like the way it looked.  When I pulled it off, it took a little paper with it.  I was more satisfied with the bow below the sentiment, but now I needed something to cover up my mistake.  Stars to the rescue!  They actually work out well with the baby boy theme.  It turned out to be a happy accident! 

 

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

Stamps: Word Play, That's The Ticket

Paper: Baja Breeze, Daffodil Delight, White

Ink: Baja Breeze, Daffodil Delight

Accessories: Stars #2 die, Ticket Punch, Corduroy Brad, Daffodil Seam Binding Ribbon, Scallop Circle dies, Circles #2 Die, Shimmer spray

Fancy Field Flowers ~ DD45 & SSSC180

 

Good Saturday Morning everyone!  Dynamic Duos has beautiful, monochromatic color combination for us this week.  Pretty in Pink & Regal Rose.

 

 

I used Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge 180 to help me along with my card for this week.

I hadn't used my Field Flowers set in a while and decided to go with it!  I also decided to add in a neutral of Crumb Cake.  I stamped the flower stems on a piece of First Edition DP, stamped the flower heads on vanilla cardstock, cut them out and attatched them to the stems.  I curled up the edges of the flowers a little to give them some dimetion.  I also stamped the flower center on vanilla, cut them out, sprayed them with a little shimmer spray, and popped them up with dimentionals.  I distressed the edges of the designer paper, sponged it, and layered it on some Crumb Cake.  For the background piece, I ran my brayer over my crumb cake ink pad and rolled it right onto the Vintage Wallpaper EF.  I placed a piece of vanilla in and ran it through the my Big Shot.  Voila!  A textured background with a little color.  I love that technique!  A few other accessories in the form of ribbon, buttons and sentiment tickets complete my card.
