Happy Mother’s Day ~ Thinking of You

Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mothers out there! For this card, I got inspired by Altenew’s color challenge. I was super excited to finally be playing with this stamp set, and I feel like it was for the perfect occasion. I miss and think of my mom often, so I feel like my sentiment was more fitting for me than Happy Mother’s Day.

Thank you for spending some of your time with me. Hope you have a wonderful day.

  • Supplies:
    • Stamp: Altenew Blooming Tulips
    • Die: Unity Stamp On My Mind Die
    • Ink: Altenew Pale Mauve and Grape Agate; Gina K Designs Sweet Mango, Honey Mustard, Light Spruce, and Medium Spruce

Fabulous Flamingo

Today I decided to color up this flamingo from Altenew Poised Flamingo. The card was inspired by MFT Sketch 555 and Time Out’s Photo.

I cut out 3 different colored strips of cardstock and heat embossed the sentiment from Altenew Ornate Foliage Stamp Set onto the black cardstock with Altenew Crisp Pure White Embossing Powder. To make sure my strips were straight, I used my Misti to line the strips and used glue to adjust if needed.

You Matter To Me

Hello! I’m back for the second week as Just Us Girls’ Guest Designer. The challenge this week for Trend week is Layers.

This card was made to celebrate Mother’s Day since it’s this weekend. Hopefully, you are ready to show them some paper love.

This gave me an opportunity to use my new layering stamp set Majestic Bloom from Altenew. Layering stamps allow you to create colorful images without coloring. Theoretically, it should be faster, but trying to match the layers perfectly is also very time consuming.

Once I was done layering my flower and leaves, I fussy cut them out. Next I used Pink and Main’s Stitched Rectangles to die cut out a teal and a white cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from Concord & 9th’s Blooms Fill-In Stamp Set onto the white cardstock and assembled my card.

Thank you for stopping by. Be sure to stop by JUGS blog to check out what the Design team has created. Join us in some layering and you might be the next Guest Designer.

Have a great weekend!

Coloring Challenge – Day 10

Happy Weekend! It’s the last day of The Daily Marker Coloring Challenge. I’ve been busy, so I haven’t been able to post my coloring challenge projects on the blog until today. If you want to see what I’ve been coloring, check out my Instagram and give me a follow if you like what you see.

Now for my spring themed card, it was inspired by the JUGS Photo Challenge. The neon rain boots caught my attention, and I had the perfect stamp for it. The stamp is from Unity Stamp Joy and Brighter Days and the flowers from the background is from Altenew Under the Cherry Blossom Tree.

Thank you for stopping by!

Let’s Get Together

Ending the Spring Summer Coffee Lovers Hop with this Get Together Card and the Hot Chocolate Card below. I had tons of fun joining in on this hop and it gave me some chance to use some new stamps.

I started ink blending with Gina K Designs Lucky Clover for the grass and Sea Glass for the sky. Next I used GKD Kraft and Dusty Rose for the Cherry Blossom Tree from Altenew. I watercolored the Clearly Besotted Spilling Tea images, fussy cut them out, and attached them to the card. Lastly, I stamped the sentiment from Clearly Besotted Spilling Tea.

My Christmas Hot Chocolate Card.

This card was inspired from My Favorite Things Sketch #534. The digital stamp was from Polkadoodles called Bella Bear Hot Chocolate and the paper was from Recollections Red & White Christmas Paper Pad. I colored him with Copic Markers and Tombow ABT Pro Alcohol Markers. I’m starting to get the hang of the alcohol markers and love coloring with them. The only problem is that I have a limited amount of colors.

Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment! Have a good weekend!
