Hues of Happy Birthday ~ HSS409, AYSI293


Hello stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments sketch challenge for March.  I also used the inspiration from As You See It challenge #293.
I used a tag from Celebration Tags dies for the background of my main panel.  For the horizontal element across the bottom, I used a scrap of Like An Animal DSP that had been laying on my desk.   The Hues of Happiness flowers were also cast offs from a different project as well.  I added them on top of the tag and tucked the greenery around them as well as a little bit of gold leaves to pick up the gold in my distressed and ink blended animal print DSP.  





Here's a list of my supplies....
Stamps: Friendly Hello
Ink: Blushing Bride, Versa Mark
Paper: Flirty Flamingo, White, Gold Foil, Hues of Happiness DSP, Like an Animal DSP
Accessories: Gold pearls, metallic ribbon, gold EP, Animal Print EF, Celebration Tags dies

Artistically Inked Get Well ~ HSS408, PP628, CTC407

Hi there stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments February color challenge.  We've got a pretty palette for you to play along with for the next two weeks.  I wanted to play along with a couple other challenges too, so I used a get well message as my sentiment for The Paper Players 628, and I also cased the carrot card in the Sale-A-Bration catalog for Casing the Catty 407.  
The main panel of my card is 1/4 of a piece from a One Sheet Wonder I stamped.  What a fun way to make a bunch of cards.  I've been around the stamping world for a long, long time and had seen the OSW done years ago but I never jumped on the bandwagon.  I had recently seen a card done with it and figured there was no time like the present to give it a try.  I thought these colors lent themselves nicely to a floral OSW motif. I added in some Crumb Cake as a neutral.









Here's a list of my supples....
Stamps: Artistically Inked, Inspired Thoughts
Ink: Flirty Flamingo, Balmy Blue, Old Olive, Crumb Cake
Paper: White, Country Gingham DSP, Flirty Flamingo, Balmy Blue
Accessories: Everything Fancy sequins, Linen Thread

Spanner Panel Leopard Print ~ HSS407


Hello stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments Sketch Challenge #407.
So, anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE leopard print.  My wardrobe is full of it!  When the spring catalog came out the Like An Animal DSP jumped out at me right away.  I knew that would be one of my first purchases.  
I paired it with the retired pink leopard DSP from last year's Pattern Party.  
Also, when I saw this sketch, my mind immediately went to a spanner card.  This is definitely a match made in heaven and it was very fun to make!  
I didn't add any other images other than the sentiment because I really wanted the paper to be the star of the show.  
The sentiment (from Charming Sentiments) is embossed in gold and cut out with a couple layering hexagons....one's a retired punch and the other is a die from Something Fancy dies. The bow behind the sentiment is Ribbon from the retired Fine Art ribbon pack.

First Post for 2023! HSS405


Hello stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments first challenge of 2023!  We've got a beautiful, soft color challenge for you featuring Petal Pink, Pool Party, and Mango Melody.  I wasn't sure about the Mango Melody at first but I found a way to make it work!  
I decided that these colors would lend themselves nicely to a wedding card.  I stamped a could of the images from Beautiful day in Gray Granite ink and colored them in sparingly with my blends.  After everything was colored I ran the main panel through my die cut machine with the Painted Texture EF. 
I'm very pleased with the outcome!  I stamped the sentiment from the same set and cut it out with the new Something Fancy dies.  a pretty shimmery Pool Party ribbon and some In Color gems finish this card off.  





Here's a list of my supplies....
Stamps: Beautiful Day
Ink: Petal Pink, Pool Party, Mango Melody blends; Gray Granite & Petal Pink
Paper: Petal Pink, White, and Gray Granite
Accessories: Pool Party shimmmer ribbon, In Color gems, Painted Texture EF, Something Fancy dies

Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

Oh Holy Night ~ HSS403


Hello stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments Inspiration Challenge #403.  I have to say that photo inspiration challenges are among my favorite to participate in!  There's always so many directions to go!  I was inspired by the nativity photo.  
I started with a piece of Misty Moonlight and stamped various star images on it from So Many Stars.  I embossed with white embossing powder and then used my blender brush to brush on some Night of Navy ink around the edges.  The white embossed parts must be wiped off with a cloth after blending.  I used Going Gray and Whisper White as coordinating colors for this card.  I also played around with the off-set corner mount for a little bit of added interest.  I finished the card off with a beautiful sentiment from the stamp set stamped in Going Gray ink on a label cut from the Tasteful Labels dies.  Some polka dot tulle ribbon and Metallic Mesh ribbon tucked behind the sentiment and a few rhinestone finish it all off. 



Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!
