Inspiration Challenge 169

Happy Saturday everyone!

Here my card for today's IC on SCS. I chose this image for mine: Striped Napkins. I loved the fun and bright colors. I made the striped background my self with SU markers in Real Red, Brocade Blue, So Saffron and Certainly Celery.

The images from Garden Whimsy were stamped by coloring in the imagaes and stamping onto WW cardstock. The butterfly is the MS punch and I sponged it in Certainly Celery and Brocade Blue and adhered with a pop dot. I used rasberry stickels for the body, The little lady bugs and main image are up on dimensionals. I added some Real Red striped ribbon and Certainly Celery ribbon for the embellishment in the top right corner.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!

Color Challnege 207 and Clean and Simple 3

Good afternoon!

I made this card for two challenges on SCS today. The first one is for the Color Challenge to use Pumpkin Pie, Summer Sun and Kiwi Kiss. These are such pretty colors together. The next challenge is for the new Monday challenge called Clean and Simple. This week it is a sketch.

I started with WW for my base and just layered the three colors. On the Kiwi Kiss I used Martha Stewarts Arch Lattice punch for the one side. I then used the CM corner punch for the other colors. The image was stamped in tuxedo black and colored in with Copic markers and then the leaves were colored in by using the ink pad of Kiwi Kiss and a blender pen. I stamped the sentiment if Pumpkin Pie and layered it on Kiwi Kiss punch out with the large SU oval punch. This is up on dimensionals. I then placed to Pumpkin Pie striped ribbon on the one side and layered the hydrangea Martha Stewart punch in the three colors. The main panel is also on dimensionals for some depth.

TLC 209 and MOJO 75

Hi!

I made this card for two challenges. the first is for the Technique Lover's Challenge to use rubber bands and embossing powders. I used several bands and wrapped them around an acrylic block and stamped a piece of WW with versa mark and embossed with an emerald color powder. I then used Apricot Appeal ink to brayer on my color over the embossed areas. I left a distressed look. The sketch is the Mojo sketch for the week. I flipped it to accommodate my image. The frog and mushroom were stamped in tuxedo black and colored in with Copics. I cut out the frog and adhered him on top of the mushroom with a dimensionals. The image was then layered with the rectangle nesties. The flower image panel was stamped in tuxedo black and colored in the Copis too and then I added black brads for the centers. I used the arch lattice Martha Stewart punch for the edging on the bottom panel. The image panel is up on foam tape.

I went ahead and did the inside of my card too since I used Always Artichoke for my base card, I needed to put in a piece of white card stock so I could put in a message. I stamped the mushroom and colored it in with Copics and added a layer on the side for more decoration.

Way To Use It-Stars

Hi!
What a fun challenge today to use stars on our card or project!! I bought this stamp last week at Hobby Lobby and I thought he was just sweet! I then noticed today that his antenna look like stars!! Two for one!! Gotta like those odds!!
I ink him up in Stazon Black and colored him in with Copics (my first blending try on the watermelon). I added stickles to the wings. I layered him on the Label 2 nesties. The dp is Basic Gray Urban Prairie. I cut out a section of the bee from the paper and adhered it with a dimensional on top of the same image on the paper.
The star brad was dipped in dazzle versamark, then Kiwi Kiss and clear EP. It is is hard to see, it kind of look gold from far away.

Thanks for visiting!!

Color Challenge 200

Hi,
I made another one for this challenge because I was not thrilled with my first one which is the one below this post. I used Flower Filled for this one. I stamped the boots in Stazon UltraMarine and cut them out. I stamped the stems is Stazon green. I then stamped the flowers in Pumpkin Pie and the Ultramarine. I stamped the pumpkin one's again onto WW and punched them out and adhered them on top of the other ones with pop dots. I then added blue gems to the middle. The other flowers have stickles in the middle as well as the button on the boot. I used the Garden Green for "grass" and sued the Martha Stewart edge punch for that. I added orange brads to to bottom with my Crop-a-Dial. The Butterflies were made with the MS punch and sponged with the Pumpkin Pie and Ultramarine inks, attached with pop dots and the smaller blue gems to the body. The sentiment is the Cute and Curly set. I trimmed around the sentiment to make it fit. I then added the primas with a crystal brad. I cuttlebugged the white cs with birds and swirls.
