Sail Away ~ HSS464, TTTC271, RRCB255


Hello there stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments sketch challenge for the month of May.  I needed to make a sympathy card, so this sketch provided a great start for it.  I also used the Tic Tac Toe inspiration board of Die Cuts, Ribbon/Twine, and Embossing Folder.  I used my new bundle called Sunrise Sailing to complete this challenge.  I'm also playing along with the Retro Rubber color challenge.  My retro rubber is the sympathy sentiment from an old Sale-A-Bration set called Heal Your Heart.





Here's a list of my supplies....
Stamps: Sunrise Sailing, Heal Your Heart
Ink: Peach Pie, Calypso Coral, Coastal Cabana, Black
Paper: Coastal Cabana, Tangerine Tango, Dandy Designs DSP, Country Woods DSP, White, Black

Delightful Wishes Mother's Day ~ HSS463

Hello Stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments color challenge for May.
Our colors are Fresh Freesia, Summer Splash, and Soft Seafoam.
I decided to use these pretty, soft colors for a nice spring Mother's Day Card. I think these flowers look so pretty in Fresh Freesia.  The Soft Seafoam was perfect for the leaves and the Summer Splash made a nice background.
The flower stamps and dies are from the Delightful Wishes set.
The Mother's Day sentiment is from a retired set called A Nice Cuppa, which I punched out with a retired punch called Pretty Label.  I made a cute, little frame for the flowered branch to sit on with the amazing Everyday Arches dies.  I rounded out this card with some Antique Pearls.




 Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

Tickled Pink Tropical Flamingo ~ HSS462, PP735


Hello stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments inspiration challenge # 462.  I was inspired by the print on the beach bag and the beach towel.  
My first inclination was to reach for my Mixed Florals set and color the pretty pink tulips.  However, I ultimately decided to go in a totally different direction and get tropical!  I used a mix of very old and new stuff.  The new items on my card are all from the Happy Hibiscus set.  The circle die, the flower dies, and the sentiment.  As for the old stuff, the Flamingo is from a set called Fabulous Flamingo, the leaves are from Tropical Chic, and the DSP is the coordinating paper from Tropical Chic called Tropical Escape.  The glimmer paper is Berry Burst and is also retired. I used those dark pink glimmer strips to mimic the stripes in the towel. 
I also used the sketch from The Paper Players #735.





Here's a list of my supplies...

 Stamps: Fabulous Flamingo, Tropical Chic, Happy Hibiscus
Ink: Pretty in Pink, Polished Pink, Granny Apple Green, Lemon Lime Twist, Garden Green, Versamark
Paper: Granny Apple Green, Lemon Lime Twist, Pretty in Pink, Black, Polished Pink, Berry Burst Glimmer, Tropical Escape DSP
Accessories: White EP, Tropical Chic dies, Sparkle sequins, Happy Hibiscus dies

Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!
