Moonlight Fall Foliage ~ HSS423, GDP412

Hello stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments September photo inspiration challenge.  I also used the case the designer challenge over at Global Design Project to help me along with my design.  

The photos have lots of texture and foliage to get inspired by!  I especially drawn to the blue pumpkins, so that's the main color I went with.  I know I said this already in a previous post, but I am so thrilled that Misty Moonlight was brought back as a main color.  It's one of my most favorite blues and I just can't seem to stop using it!

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

Stamps: Sparkle of the Season, Very Best Occasions, French Foliage

Ink: Misty Moonlight, Boho Blue, Crumb Cake

Paper: Misty Moonlight, Boho Blue, Crumb Cake, Glimmer White

Accessories: Misty Moonlight twine, stapler, distressing tool, Seasonal Swirls dies

Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

Triple Panel Mountain Air ~ HSS422, SSC317

Hello stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments September sketch challenge.  

My card takes in Sunday Stamps color challenge #317 as well, so I decided to use my Mountain Air set to mimic the color inspiration photo.

Western Bluebird Branch ~ HSS421

Hello stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments color challenge #421.  First off, I need to say that I am so happy they brought back Misty Moonlight as a core color.  It was one of my favorite blues ever!  Secondly, when I saw this color combo I immediately thought of a western bluebird, which is a bird that visits my area.  They are blue with a bit of the copper clay color on their breast.  

I chose to use the Seasonal Branches set and water color my bluebird.  I just love the way the colors mix together when watercoloring, especially on birds.

For the background, I took a piece of Like an Animal DSP (I'm trying to use up paper in my old stash) and brushed it with Misty Moonlight ink.  I'm loving the way this turned out!

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

Stamps: Seasonal Branches

Paper: Pecan Pie, Copper Clay, Watercolor, Like an animal DSP

Ink: Pecan Pie, Misty Moonlight, Copper Clay, Stazon

Accessories: Stitched Nested Labels dies, Intricate Leaves dies, Misty Moonlight twine.

Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

Twisted Easel Happy Thoughts ~ HSS420

Hello Stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments inspiration challenge #420.  I chose to go with the bottom right photo of the little yellow posies and leaves.  

I used Granny Apple Green for my leaves and Daffodil Delight for the flower centers and other accents.  Aren't these just bright, happy, summery colors?  Happy is what I thought, so I chose a sentiment that had the word happy in it....it's from On the Farm.

I'm also playing along with As You See It #304.  The challenge is fill in the blank.  The thing I love about summer is____________.  

What I love about it is the summery colors.  Green grass, leaves, plants and flowers.  Yellow sunshine and beautiful blooms.

I had recently been thinking of doing some sort of fun fold on my next card, so I chose this cute easel style.  It's super simple.  Here's a video (not mine) giving all the in's and out's of making this style.  So much summer fun!

Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

Sweet Moody Mauve ~ HSS417, GDP400

Hello Stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments photo inspiration challenge.  

I chose to be inspired by the ice cream cone, but used some color from the grape picture.  

I don't own any current stamp sets with any of these items in them so I turned to a really old Sale-A-Bration set called Honeycomb Happiness.  It's a very simple design.  

I'm also participating in the Global Design Project Case the Designer Challenge.  I'm casing the lime card's layout.

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

 Stamps: Honeycomb Happiness

Ink: Moody Mauve, Memento Black, Crumb Cake blends, Ivory Blends, Wild Wheat blends

Paper: Dainty Flowers DSP (Fresh Freesia), Moody Mauve, Crumb Cake, White

Accessories: Stitched So Sweetly dies, milky dots, bakers twine, Subtle EF

Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!
