My Favorite Things Sketch #247

Hey there!

I am so glad you stopped by! My time with the fun ladies over at the MFT challenge blog is ebbing, and I so enjoy being there! This weeks sketch is awesome! I just love it.

I immediately thought of a shaker card, and decided, why not? Oh, and notice the trend of happy springy colors, because I am protesting the end of summer. I hear today is officially the first day of Autumn. I can't. I just can't.

I started by die cutting the fabulous Stitched Cover Up Companion die, out of white card stock. I then took the leftover top rectangle, and inked it up with some pretty pink ink, as well as stamped a sentiment from the Thanks So Very Much stamp set.

I adhered that panel to my mint card base, and began stamping out my flowers, from the Fall Florals stamp set, using a variety of dye ink colors. I added a generous amount of foam tape to the window panel, along with some pastel sequins, before adhering the panel to the card base. I then layered my flowers across the front.

Thanks for visiting today! I hope you get a chance to play along! See you soon!

Fun News, and A Card!

Hello, hello!

I hope you had a fabulous weekend! I have some fun news to share with you..I am the newest designer for Memory Box! WHA!? I know, pinch me now. I love their dies, and am so excited to be able to share projects using them, on their blog! I will, of course, share them here too. So, would you like to see what I did?

I started with a white card panel, and die cut the fun Distressed Addington Collage out of both corners. I then inked up a white card base, using Distress Inks, in Crushed Olive, and Mowed Lawn. Once that was done, I adhered it to the card base, and flicked on some watered down black ink.

I then die cut the adorable Stitched Pumpkins, and added a bit of orange distress Ink to the sides. I adhered those with foam, and regular adhesive.

Thank you so much for stopping in, and sharing my great news! I will be back soon with more cards to share!

Winnie & Walter Guest Post Take 3

Hello, and happy Saturday!

Today I have another post up at the Winnie & Walter Blog! This week I chose to focus on ink blending. Seriously, what is not to love?!

Below are the two cards I created, and if you want more details on how I did them, hop over to the W&W Blog for the nitty gritty!

For this card I used the Essentials: Audrey's Cutaways and In Bloom: Maggie's Roses.

And for the sentiment I used The Big, the Bold and Comfort.

 For this rainbow card, I brought out the True stamp set.

 As well as In a Word: Hello Cutaway!

Thank you so much for visiting today! I hope you were inspired to try a bit of ink blending on your next project! Have a great day!
