Color Challenge 200

Hi everyone and happy Tuesday. Well the oldest is back at school, so it is finally back to normal again!! Well this was a very interesting color combination today. The only ink I have is Pumpkin Pie and cs was Pumpkin Pie and Garden Green. The blue is an Achiever color that matched up pretty well. The dp is from the glitter stack. I stamped the image from Stazon Inks and Pumpkin Pie. I pierced around the image, in the bottom corners and along the sentiment. I used the scallop punch for the image layers and the oval and word window punch for the sentiment. The sentiment and primas are up on dimensionals. I added some dew drop accents to the side and ribbon around the image.

Thanks for stopping by!

MoJo68


Hi and happy Monday! What a great sketch for MoJo Monday, I just couldn't pass it up! I used SU Washington Apple dsp for a starting point. I just love the colors in it. I used sponge daubers to color in my image. I used Ridinghood Red, Bashful Blue and So Saffron. I then cut it out with my Mega Rectangle Nesties and layered that on So Saffron. The strip is RHR and Washington Apple sap. I used buttons from CTMH and paper pierced along the middle of it and adhered with dimensionals. The sentiment is stamped in RHR, sponged and punched out with the large oval. I pierced around the larger oval and adhered with a dimensional. I used the Martha Stewart butterfly punch and sponged with all three colors and add stickles to the body of the butterfly. On the top corner I used the small and large oval punch and then adhered a prima and a dew drop.
Thanks for looking and please leave a comment if you wish!

Featured Stamper 100 JulieHRR

Happy Sunday everyone! What an awesome gallery we were to chose from today for the Featured Stamper JuliHRR. We are to pick a card and CASE it and change at least 2 things. I chose Happy Bee-lated Birthday. I loved the simplicity and the layout. The things I changed were:

colors
themes
omitted the brads and added piercing
moved the sentiment
butterflies instead of bees
one extra layer

I daubered the image with River Rock and Ridinghood Red. The dp is Cosmo Cricket Dutch Girl. I stamped the image is River Rock, punched out and layered on the scallop circle. I then paper pierced around the image and again on the dp layer. I used the MS lace edge punch for the Ridinghood Red layer.

Here is a close up of the butterflies. I punched them out with the Martha Stewart punch and daubered the edges with River Rock and Ridinghood Red. I added stickles to the body of the butterfly.

Thanks for looking and have a wonderful day!!

Inspiration Challenge 161

Hi, Here is my card for the Inspiration Challenge. What fun cakes we had to choose from for our creations today. This one is called Warning Signs. Instead of doing triangle which I do not like to do, I went with the Labels 2 nesties. I used the colors, Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Barely Banana and Pacific Blue. The exclamation pint is from the retired Brushstroke Alphabet and it is embossed in black. I then traced around the edges with a black Bic marker. I stamped the sentiment in Basic Black.
This card is the Cuppy Cake one. I thought it was just adorable. I used the Inkidinkado cupcake set. I stamped each cupcake in black, colored in the tops with my Copics. I used the 1/1 inch circle punch for the cherries in Real Red cs and the stems are small pieces of black cs cut very thin and I wrapped them around my finger to get them to curl. I used the word window punch for the base and each cupcake is on a dimensional. I stamped the sentiment is Orchid Opulence.
Thanks for stopping by!
